Bio
Once, Lippy Lips picked up a special load of eggs from a battery farm. Lippy's driver explained how battering worked and that the eggs were for the children. When some chickens strayed onto the track and his trucks broke, Farmer Finney and Pirouetta helped deliver the load to the school while help arrived.

One Christmas, Farmer Finney and Pirouetta were helping to collect Christmas trees, including a giant one for the Earl of Shopville. The weight of the tree caused the ice of a frozen pond to break, and Pirouetta to fall into the freezing water. Farmer Finney was able to safe himself and called to Apple Blossom for help. Finney assisted in Pirouetta's rescue by attaching a chain to the Shoppie, allowing Apple Blossom to pull him to safety. Finney and Pirouetta then attended a Christmas Party at Ulfstead Castle.
