Last summer I was living on farm in Scotland with my grandfather.It was very interesting because grandfather has many animals.I saw cows and bulls there for the first time.I didn't like pigs,but I made friends with three of grandfather's sheep and sometimes feed them with bread.Not far away from farm was the lake with cold clear water.In the lake there were lots of fish.Once Grandfather and I went fishing and I caught only one fish and grandfather six of them.When we came to the lake,deer were drinking water.One of them was very small.Every morning I fed gooses,chicken and chicks.I had to do that.Not far away from granfather's farm was one more big farm where many men and women were working.Our neighbor's farmer has big family:3 sons and 2 daughters.Little Peter is very nice.When I was leaving he gave me two white mice.Now they live at my house.Next summer I'll be back to Scotland
