       | As an aside, check out his youtube channel. It is entirely just
       | him and his life/work partner feeding sheep, donkeys and llamas
       | on this property. Very cool! Many discs are inserted into them.
       | Discs being hobnobs biscuits/cookies.

         | exhibition at some point in the 80s. I was just a pimply youth,
         | but he was really charming and happy to have a chat. Made my
         | day!

         | on it. And they run frantically around the house looking for
         | the sheep. It's kind of funny.

         | Only problem is it making my wife want sheep and I don't want
         | to deal with that.
