Someone told me to watch out for the farkles if I ever go to the auld county. Will I need a farkle trap? Do I have to be very, very quiet when I go farkling? lol!!

Jilleeeee Tell her about the highland sheep - very mean spirited, ornery creatures. Comes from having to endure the severe climate - the perishing cold nights and the dark, damp, foggy, gloomy days. I'd not want to cross the path of a highland sheep for love nor money. PS It's better to shout out loudly when farkling - it unnerves them.

I'm always around ! When you were talking about 'the auld Country', that usually means Ireland. I am in Scotland...
