A Sucker for Good News Stories

Must admit I was feeling a bit overwhelmed today for a number of reasons which I wont bore you with.

I know we all have those days when we just want to scream, when you seem surrounded by self interested, non productive green house gas emitters, who you wish would just get off the planet

Well I was having one of those days and then this arrived in my inbox and I smiled and all was once right again with the world.  

This is Bobbi and she is a Jersey Holstein cross 3 weeks old little heifer we gave away yesterday to some wonderful people who as you can see are giving her a life of luxury.

Bobbi has a new mum. Just to add to the liquorice allsorts mix her new mum is a Brown Swiss. 

I had call yesterday from Bobbi’s new owner who was distressed about Bobbi’s new mum

Apparently her next door neighbour’s Angus bull had jumped the fence, impregnated her Brown Swiss cow who is a companion for her horse and sadly the resulting offspring did not survive

At Clover Hill the team is thrilled Bobbi is now surround by all this love, cuddly blankets and fireside moments.

What do you reckon. I think marshmallows and hot chocolate might be on the agenda later tonite for Bobbi
