British Alpaca Society Foundation

Spent last week tutoring on the British Alpaca Society Foundation Course hosted by Bozedown Alpacas. Fellow tutors were Nick Harrington Smith of the Alpaca Stud and observing and helping was Jay Holland of Pure Alpacas. Weather was superb throughout, the delegates on the course had travelled quite a ways to participate with alpaca owners from Spain, Switzerland and Eire.

A good time was had by all and as always we had a lot of laughs along with the learning.

 I had a great time. I stayed in a wee hostelry called the Perch and Pike in Moulsford, which was perfectly charming, good food, quality ale and quiet! Well almost, Moulsford village has a church clock which chimes on the hour and the half hour throughout the night. If your sleep pattern coincides then you are drifting out of Under Milk Wood all night long with Ogrmore Pritchard and. Ocky the milkman etc  As each hour bongs you can't help but ponder who in days gone by had to get up at that time and what job they had to do. Amazing, charming, quaint, a lovely stay but beware of the bongs!!
