Audrey : With lots of cute animals ...
a bunny cushion ...
a mixed herd of different sheep & goats ...
Lillian : Our stylist was very interested in all the different fleeces, she does hand-spinning sometimes.
Audrey : Oh yes, she wanted to give this greedy goat a good hair cut!
Lillian : That is an Angora Goat - but you make Mohair yarn from his fleece.
Audrey : That is too confusing - and the goat has horns!
Just like that great big bull we had to pose with ...
Audrey : This baby goat was cute but quite naughty!
"Billy the Kid" I called him - he was fwisking about and butting the other animals and annoying them - lots of fun!
Lillian : Some roosters by the well ...
the farm buildings are very picturesque ...
Lillian : And if you look closely, you can see plants growing in the thatch of the roofs - mostly irises.
Audrey : How pwetty to have flowers growing on your roof!
Lillian : And very appropriate because the Fleur-de Lis - so associated with the French monarchy - is a stylised iris flower.
Audrey : I do like this picture of us at the farm gate.
Lillian : We were quite sad to leave Marie Antoinette's Hamlet and the farm - we'll leave this post with one last photo of Le Hameau.
