Ships\u2019 Pursers always want \u201cthe same thing as last time\u201d. Food, water, firewood, detergent and so on. Whereas at Lancastrian Lines, an order processing clerk has to work with ever changing manifests. Copper, lumber, oats, sugar, oranges, sheep, and even llamas!<\/p>\n Right now KristalClear has no idea what\u2019s going on and she wants Conning to explain the whole background to the llama story.<\/p>\n So far, her demi-psychic powers haven\u2019t worked on the human wavelength, but right now a bit of extra insight would definitely help. Especially when people like Conning start talking in riddles.<\/p>\n Determined to remain calm and polite, KristalClear looks directly at Conning, narrows her eyes, and lightly pushes her tongue into her left cheek, then ventures a suggestion.<\/p>\n \u201cTwo things,\u201d says KristalClear, \u201care they alongside St George\u2019s Quay right now, can I go and try talking to them? And, it\u2019s the first time I\u2019ve ever heard of people shipping llamas, what\u2019s that all about?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt seems that llama farming isn\u2019t a big business success story,\u201d says Conning. \u201cThere\u2019s a farm near Conwy which has been trying to sell their six. They finally found a buyer in Carlisle who wanted ten. And you know HopAlong in Ulverston?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYes, he used to run a stable and a stud,\u201d says KristalClear, \u201c I went there once when I was about ten, but he stopped doing horses didn\u2019t he?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAnd then he started breeding llamas!\u201d says Conning, \u201cbut one of his llamas died in June, and now he\u2019s decided to sell the other three and call it a day. He wants to retire.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cDo farmers ever retire? Couldn\u2019t he start breeding horses again, he knows the market?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cJust some chickens and a few goats from what I hear. Don\u2019t all farmers do that in their later years?\u201d asks Conning, \u201cjust enough to have a supply of eggs and milk?\u201d<\/p>\n Previous<\/a> – Book1 Page28 \u2013 Next<\/a><\/p>\n Previous – Book1 Page28 \u2013 Next her work experience week at Lancastrian Lines.
