A blustery ever changing weather day was spent at the Dulwich Park Festival. This year's theme was "Animals". Missmarketcrash loves a good sheep-herding show and was treated to something even better. A Goose-herding event! Tiny bridges, little swimming pools, gates and other props not unlike those found on miniature golf courses were placed just-so on the lawn. Happy-go-lucky border collies herded the geese through the obstacle course under the direction of the lovely shepherdess. And then, miniature six-week old geese appeared and the props were rearranged. It brought me back to university days where I did a course on the genetics of dogs-who-are-good-at-sheep-herding and why why why. But I'll spare you.
I also saw a goat-sheep. A geep? A shoat? Oh dear. Anyway, it was something that was an accident but was cute none-the-less.
Ah. Now you are wondering how my idyllic day ties in with the economic crisis. Easy. I saw herd behavior, and, something rarer than a black swan in the same spot.
O - and to top it all off on the coincidence side of things, I saw Tamiflu
Harry perform.
