HMBARNS revisited: Day 3: Ding-ding!
The high: For MOTS, feeding Domino by hand tonight, some 2 days after I did!
The low: The second load of washing in two days due to Junior splashing in the mud [again]. Not really a low point, because dirt is good! We love it really!
Today's recommendation: Crich Tramway Museum. Keep right on the way up if there's a special event on.
Read on for the details....
We're into day 3 of our second visit to Holestone Moor Barns. The details of today's events are ...
Just about the best scrambled egg I've ever had. And I'm not saying that because I cooked them, I'm saying that because of the tatse. We had a double-yolked egg which is not something you see every day with your battery farmed nonesense. These were about the lowest food-miles free-range eggs you can get. All of about 70 feet as the crow flies!
Boy wonder was a little confused at Crich, the National Tramway Museum. He has a fixation for buses at the moment, so everything was a bus. Or they were until the tracks left normal "road" surfaces and looked like regular rail tracks with sleepers and ballast. Then the trams became "toot-toot", or trains. We'll have that confusion sorted out by the next visit.
And then the invitation from Steve & Vicki to feed "the boys", an opportunity MOTS had been gasping for since learning they were here. And she wasn't disappointed. Only Domino came and fed from us, but boy was he "enthusiastic"! Considering the news about their arrival was that he tentatively fed from the hand, he has really come on between reading that and what we witnessed tonight. He's more like a dog than an alpaca.
Looking forward to: Finishing this post so I can get my pork & tomato sausage roll out of the fridge!
