Life in North Wales with an eccentric Welshman, a dog in the twilight of his years and one in the 'know-it-all' of youth.
"Well, there is only one piece of advice I can give you," said the wisest of wise men. "The secret of happiness is to see all the marvels of the world and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon."

Lazy!
Don't think you're lying in bed all day, my lad. Time to get up!
Happily one of the horses lying down has had the decency to get fully dressed. It always makes me blush when I walk past fields of naked animals. How come they have got away with it for so long?
Isn't that supposed it's about to rain or something? And if they're so smart, why don't they buy an umbrella?
ReplyDeleteNo, SP, that's cows. Horses can sleep standing up for short periods but also take turns to lie down to sleep and the others stand guard over them.

ReplyDeleteYes, we're all very correct and modest here in north Wales, YP. ;)
