One of Charlie’s sisters recently visited a farm just outside London and was most impressed by their …”shigs”. They look like a cross between a pig and a sheep, hence their name.

But whilst taking a break from selling our lovely upholstered beds all day we couldn’t help but notice the similarity between these wonderful beasts and the even more wonderful Uncle Monty from the film Withnail and I.

Does anyone else agree with us that the resemblance is uncanny?
