Animal Crackers, Part I
My motto in life is ' Never be afraid to take a detour' so when I spotted a sign for a holy well along a country road, I didn't hesitate to point the car down the boreen to see where it led. I ended up in someone's farmyard, but the lady of the house didn't mind, and pointed me in the direction of the well (I'll post the pictures over the weekend). As I got out of the car, I kept an eye on the two dogs (a pair of sleepy old Labradors -yes they're cute, but the only time I was ever bitten by a dog was by a 'docile' Labrador). As you can see, the dogs were the least of my worries. No sooner had I opened the boot to grab my camera and wellies than these two 'assistants' appeared to help me unpack - a pair of pet goats who bundled me out of the way in their rush to have a good nose about. Just after I took this shot, the white one tried to jump into the back of the car.
