Alpaca gelding? Guess I should look that up.

Agree. Alpaca prices are insane. When will this madness end!

I wonder how they can describe concrete kit homes as mobile.

I really like the Swiss approach with regard to that matter.
Quite frankly, things like that have been going on for too long without the legislator to intervene. It's high time that legislation preventing such transactions is passed in other countries. I think that provisions like Art. 13 of the Swiss TSchV need to be adopted globally.
Social animals need their buddies.

(Yeah, and aside from the Alpaca jokes - I have made my peace with how the watch world has become. I kinda like the Skydweller, but I don't need one. If someone wants to spend 50 grand on one, that's a rather loud statement regarding his mental development, but it doesn't do substantial harm to me).

This Alpaca is a series from 3 years ago. That means you can expect tropical fur coloring, and a few scratches on his paws that gives a nice vintage vibe.

My favorite feature of this series is the friendliness, and unshaven allure. Good buy, might go
Up for a bit market wise.

Gloucester's just up the road. Alvin is a good looking guy. He's got a face like our British Short Hair but bigger.

I'm tempted...

100% agree OP. Why do we need a Welsh Pony & Cob Society?

Can't Welsh Ponies afford to have their own society? It's 2022 fer chrissakes!
