One of my favorite memories is me, my little brother and my dad all just messing about in the garden of my favorite house we lived in (all the best memories in that one). We decided to let the goat out of her pen (we lived out in the middle of nowhere so had quite an array of pets) only she ran into the woods pulling my dad behind her who was trying his hardest to stay on his feet - didnt realise how strong she was.

That and a million others..
