Election fever hits Holmbush

Election fever has gripped the nation and has even made its mark in the farmyard – in our lambing barns! Among the 130 lambs which have arrived this spring was a delivery of triplets who – in keeping with the current national obsession – have been named David, Gordon and Nick! Campaigning mostly for more milk and greener grass, the triplets have won the vote as everybody's current favourite! The race is clearly hotting up among the real election candidates and to add to the election fun on the farm, staff have been allocating party colours to the goats for a little election fun when they stage the daily goat races on the farm. To help everyone celebrate or commiserate the way things go on election day itself the farm has also booked Charlie the Clown to come and entertain visitors at the farm throughout May 6.
