A farmer joke came my way this morning, which was a strange coincidence, and most apt, since I was going to Rosie’s farm for the day.

A Farmer Goes to Court

A farmer, who had been involved a road accident when he was taking his horse and pig to auction, was in court claiming compensation.

“Tell me,” said the lawyer for the other side, “is it true that you told the policeman who appeared at the scene shortly after the accident that you had never felt better in your life?”

“That’s absolutely correct,” answered the farmer.

“Well, how can it be that now you are seeking compensation for your injuries?” asked the lawyer.

“I shall explain,” began the farmer, “you see, when the policeman saw that my horse had a broken leg, he shot him. The same thing happened with my injured dog – he shot him too; even the poor pig in the back had the same treatment. So when the police officer came over to me and asked me how I was feeling, I didn’t feel I had any alternative but to say, ‘I’ve never felt better in my life!’ ”

And here are some photographs of Rosie’s farm and some gorgeous animals. Note how the baby llamas are growing. Now they can run ride the wind… in a cute sort of lamb-like gamboling way.
