Loving my Oldies Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Unfortunately, they aren't archived - they are deleted in the interests of space . I stuffed up some photos once and I remembered that I'd posted them on DOL, so contacted Troy to see if the thread still existed. Sadly no. Terribly Off Topic, but do you remember the man who had a litter of Dalmatians and they were named after the King Arthur characters? That must have been around the same time as Hamlet's puppyhood ???

persephone Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 Bruce is possibly the most awesome name ever for a sheep. It's heaps better than the boring name he had when he came to live with us ..poor bruce ..he had a rough start ... I was not told of his habit of knocking people over .... until one day, he tried it on me Reflexes kicked in ..and I grabbed one ear really hard, twisted, and hung on tight ... yes, it did hurt! He was careful after that ....I introduced 'Collie' to him, and he very soon learnt what it felt like to be on the receiving end !! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
