After three days absence the cattle seemed pleased to see us and they waited at the fence, then licked our hands and let us rub them on their foreheads and around their necks.  Milton’s horns have grown which is a hazard when he turns his head to have his ears rubbed!  The tomatoes have ripened on the vines and we have so many that tonight I will make tomato soup and also tubs of pasta sauce.  All destined for the freezer.

I would like to add some photos but sadly wordpress media is “playing up” today and refusing to allow me to add any images. I don’t know how quickly I will be able to resolve this issue but will keep you posted.
