Spot and Suzie and Lambikin

Pinky’s twin girls, who we helped deliver, are the friendliest of the lambs. When I fed Lambikin this morning they ran over to me and, after he had finished his bottle, they rubbed noses with me. We have decided to keep them both and sell the other lambs

In the garden the sunshine is working it’s magic

Garlic growing
Shallots filling out
Broad beans in rows
And in this bed closest to the house
Asparagus are pushing through the soil

A sunny, cold afternoon

Perfect for weeding the raised beds and spotting bright red ladybirds – plenty about.

The cherry blossom is starting to show

Another hen went broody and is sitting on two goose eggs in her own “broody house”

The sheep have been moved around the field and are enjoying the fresh grass

Pinky and her twins

I need to restock the freezers with some cakes and jam tarts.

Ready to go into a preheated oven

And to top it all the dentist was pleased with me this morning – I did stop eating sweets during the first lockdown as I was worried about losing teeth or needing fillings when dentists were closed. That seems a long time ago now as we begin to open up and to live with “the virus”.
