Charlie with dead thistle in his mouth - at his new home here on are new farm Gwarglwydeth (say that after a glass or two of vino!!!).
This little man decided that he couldn't possible ever, ever load again (well travelled when we were up & down to vets with him when he was an orphan!) & he went over several times to the point of being dangerous - so he & Cuckoo (who was a real gem & perfectly behaved loading etc) had to stay over with the folk who moved into our place - they were fine about it. So the next day Lisa came & doped him & he was loaded man power into the lorry. Arived here safe & sound beautifully transported by Len of White Horse Enterprises - whithout whom we would have been totally up a gum tree over the moving weekend (due to vehicles going belly up!!!!)
I've lots more piccies - but at the mo - not much time!!!!

Welcome Home Judith! Your new place looks fab now its got little Charlie installed..he was probably worried the lorry driver wouldn't be able to pronounce the name of the new place in the event of a wron turn! Has everyone else settled in? Hows the delish Rameed, does he approve of the new abode ? |

New pad looks gorgeous Judith - beautiful views by the looks of it, and I'm sure you'll all be very happy there. Naughty Charlie! Deciding he would rather not load! Just showing you all whose boss!! |

Congratulations on your move, looks a wonderful place! Charlie obviously thought he was going back to vets (even though they have been great) thank goodness horses are all settled and in new home! Shame they cant help you now in unpacking!! |

Yaaaaay, glad you are finally in there and settled. Very naughty Charlie, and is obviously frightened of the name of the place (LOL Pixie).
Hope you don't have too many more boxes to unpack.
Looks a fab place, hope you and Alan have many happy years there. |
