The Highland Bull is a beauty - they're classed as a rare breed aren't they ???

The layout looks great... presumably the sheep were only in the small paddock for lambing anyway. The buildings are fab too - love the farmhouse :-*

I think they are classed as a rare breed LadyFarmer.

I must admit he is a beauty, lets hope he gets on with the business at hand  ;)  ;)

I will have to take a few pics of the ladies and post them up for you all to see!

SORRY for hi-jacking massey mans topic!
