I took a photo of an odd looking beast a while ago.
I will have a deco and see if I can find it and post it later.
I am busy having a look at Jupitor in between cloud cover at the moment.

I had no idea what it was and just dont remember where I took the photo.
It was in a file that I titled John O Groats and it was when my son came to visit and we went out that way for a run and came back via Dunnet and Thurso.

As you may tell from most of my posts ,I do enjoy a bit of leg pulling and jest.
However ,is the photo that I took a Larma?
I have not seen one before or since.

yeah kev there are a few farms that keep llama's up here. aparently the wool is better quality than sheeps wool and gets a better price and the meat is supposedly like venison rather than like lamb or mutton

Never thought of eatin the meat - never seen it on offer. But the wool is lovely. They are bonnie creatures but I believe not too friendly and inclined to spit.
