Farm


I've just got back from a holiday in Ethiopia where a 'farm' is often a group of animals under the control of children who, with just a stick or whip, drive the cattle, goats, sheep and donkeys to water and vegetation. In the Bale Mountains there was no shortage of either. See my blogspot (http://helen-outofafrica.blogspot.com) for more photographic images of this beautiful part of the world.

Thanks. I had no shortage of sources of inspiration for this title - I just needed to work on the skills.
