I like it nice and simple and would guess you could get 6 or 7 grass cutters for the price of a chief exec, maybe even more.

The DEFRA regulations make it too hard to move them around

Ours are allowed anywhere in the Park and can be seen walking on the lead some days. They can not leave the park boundry - he does like walking up the wall on Fielding Lane though

I did not realise that goats needed 'walkies'.
I knew a couple who kept a few (for milk) and their goats never got that luxury, although to be fair, the compound was reasonably large.

They don't need it but it is a little bit different for the kids to see.

You can try and milk ours if you like but you might need a slightly different hand action

That is another natural resource (along with spring water) that Rhyddings Park has not exploited.
Are the Health & Safety Regs preventing this potential money spinner from being used?
