May 2012

My Apologies for not updating, life is a bit up and down at present, as with everyone I think.

All the animals flourish, the loan horse we had with Holly did not work out so we will be saving for another.  Jacqui at Roy's farm has kindly offered use of Lilly, her horse and Holly is now working with Judy as I cannot get on fast enough. Judy has just had her 27th birthday and I spent a few hours grooming her and treating her.  Fritz is well although he had a bit of a chill in the rain and was locked in the shelter to dry out.

Violet lost her lamb as it was dead when it was born and Eugenie has just had Archie (he interrupted the Archers radio show). Coco and Pop are still unknowns as they kicked Bertie for the first few weeks.

Bob, Dorcas and Quacker are well and happy, Bob has a friend in Kath, who spoils him.

Holly is about to start her final GCSE's and is studying hard, Jeff is still up and down to Bournemouth.

We have a new caravan, which my brother Rod has sold to us for the field although I still have to pay him! It is very nice and has heating, a beautiful bathroom, oven, freezer etc, it is very luxurious!

The cold and wet has meant I have still got the Rayburn lit and seem to have spent April cold and wet.

Not a lot else to mention, will add as I can.
