                   *******************************************************************

    

G O A T s and Royal Golden Guernsey Goats

We laud the sports G. O. A. T. ‘s,
the “Greatest of all Time” who please
    us fans with their skills.
    We crave those great thrills.
Each chance to support them, we seize.

Of special goats, you might have heard,
deemed royal by King Charles the III.
    This rare golden breed
    is regal indeed.
Last month this bestowal occurred.

Sara Kendrick August 27, 2024 at 1:42 AM How lucky are the goats to have been declared royal. I wonder if he and Camilla like roasted goat or goat's milk or maybe goat cheese? Thanks for sharing this funny one with us. Sara K Janice Canerdy September 7, 2024 at 2:08 PM Yes, the background story is part of history. Thanks, Sara. Janice Sara Kendrick August 27, 2024 at 1:52 AM I looked it up and it is amazing that it was cared for and saved from the Nazi's during the war and its line of decent has lived this long being cared for by the people of Wales. I guess it is the people who are special in that they cared for the goats. Sara K
