Hahaha @CherryBomb
Yeah, that's my heifer (young female not had a baby) Killara in my profile.
@Aries I work one day a week at a Limousin cattle farm near me. We do basic farm work, and also train cattle to lead, which we take to country shows and the Royal Adelaide Show.
We have this weekend off, and we start back halter-training the following weekend, the 3rd.
I've not done any work with Killi yet, so I'm excited to see how she goes. She is a very curious girl, which is how I chose her (she followed me through a paddock).
I got a blue halter, neck strap and nose rope, a blue show cane, 2 blue flexi tubs (for feeding and watering). And last week the boss gave us 10 ear tags in our colour with our stud name. In case you've not guessed, my stud colour is blue!
I also got money, and a gift voucher. So I'm currently online looking at more stuff to buy

I think it might just be me working my way around as being new here. Sounds like you all had a nice day with some nice food.

@Crazy_Bug_Lady, that sounds like a lot of fun and rewarding.

@Former-Member Bahahahah - love a silly joke, thanks for that. It made me laugh out loud.
@Aries it can take some time getting to know how to use these Forums, but if you need a hand with anything just give us a shout out. We're a helpful bunch.
@Jacques, why thankful for the vegan platter. Christmas time is like a foodie festival for me.

Hi @Aries, another welcome to you from me. Quiet day here too really but a good one too.
@CherryBomb, all my offerings at the feast are 'virtually prepared', lol. I am not a vegetarian but chose vegan so we could all enjoy.

@Jacques I think I know the one. It's stunning here. I highly recommend visiting, there's just something magical about it.
@Crazy_Bug_Lady @Aries @Former-Member @Jacques @Mazarita, can I ask how we are we all feeling seeing the day is nearly over. Tired? Glad it's over? Pleased?
I'm pleased. Pleased to have had such relaxing day. In the past, I've done too much, and have ended up exhausted.

@Jacques, it is so worth it, Katoomba, three sisters, Jenolan caves near by and Lithgow where their is a glow worm tunnel.
