Greeves puts on (a little) weight

A dry start to the day and then, later on, we had quite a downpour.  Sam was at home which meant I could get Granny into Sturminster for some shopping.  We did a few spit offs this afternoon with the girls and, I'm pleased to say, everyone was totally uninterested in Dude's advances - even Islay!  Islay is far too much of a lady to spit but she backed away into a corner and steadily munched her way through a bale of hay whilst glaring at Dude.  I am really hoping she can hold this pregnancy.

Little Greeves was much better on his bottle today and put on 300g which is much better than usual. Sam did manage a photo of him but he is rather wet and bedraggled.  It was quite a job though as Velocette will insist on popping up in front of the camera.


Finally, this is Greeves - still looking very much a baby!

Tomorrow, Sam is going to Gillingham and Shaftesbury Show with his friend - I am rather jealous of that but we can't all be away at the same time.  If there are any alpacas there I am sure he'll hunt them down and pester the owners!
