Donkey visiting!
As some of you know we've been looking for a couple of donkeys - well tomorrow we are off to visit 2 that are looking for a new home 
Very chuffed about this! They are called Joseph and Rachel and are 20.
Keep your fingers crossed they like us

Maz, eMy husband had donkeys as a child and loved them, they make lovely pets, we have the space for the first time ever and they eat thistles.

They've got names already and afer 20 years I couldnt change them - they're Joseph and Rachel - I like them! but you could make up nick names??
anyway I'll let you know how we get on - so excited!!

Re: Donkey visiting!
Our neighbours across the road have 2 donkey's - names Peter and Coco, ther are lovely, quite old so shouldn't imagine any babies arriving. It's great for the kids they just look out of the window and if the donley's see you looking they plod over, lean over the wall and stare in at you, which makes the kids laugh, and if the alarm clock ever failed, 7.45 every morning (eh-orr, eh-orr, eh-orr), it a good job don't like sleeping in at weekend
