I do love the Highland cows, and the way the Scottish people pronounce it too! I live in regional Australia and on Thursday morning I came face to face with a juvenile wallaby, stuck in our backyard. He sat and watched me hang the washing on the line and then like you, I gently herded him out the back gate to freedom. I grew up on a farm and have experienced the gate frustration so many times...and I too dislike the feeling of a bloke watching you in the midst of it, even if it is just your Dad.

How evocative! I almost feel like I am there. Sorry to hear about your gataphobia though.

We have highland cows in the farm at the end of our road, and they've always intrigued me. I just find them so beautiful! I've spent so much time leant against the fence just watching and admiring them
