Although often penniless, the couple fill their days with dogs, cats, goats and horses until they need a Spanish goatherder named Antonio. Antonio needs a miracle.
Diane Elliott was born in Kent but spent her adult life in Dorset. Although trained as a secretary, her dream was to work with horses. As an eight-year-old, she won many rosettes in horse competitions, particularly for the egg-and-spoon and musical sack races. Upon reflection, that was a good start for a budding goatherder.
