Dorset looks as beautiful as ever. I haven’t visited since 2016 but it is a favourite county of mine.
I was introduced by my parents to it because an older generation of my father’s lived there and he had fond memories of visits there.

I went to pay our new herd of Sussex cows a visit the other evening after work, just 5 minutes down the road from my house.

Beautiful photos! Lovely flowers - is that your garden? I also love the one of the cow. My immediate thought when I saw the herd of cows though was - eek! I once had a lovely walk through a cow field, got my camera out and one of them started chasing me ha ha - only just got over the fence in time. They can be quite protective when they have calves.

Yes, it’s my garden. I’ve worked quite hard on it this year, and planted quite a few new perennials. The cows are particularly selected for being a docile breed. We have had Red Devon cows the previous 2 years which are very docile. The Sussex cows are slightly larger and seem to be a little more curious!

You've done a lovely job with your garden 
I've always loved cows and found them so gentle - except that time I got chased ha ha. We have all sorts round here. Belted galloways locally. My favourite have always been the red shaggy Highland cows
