Monday 24th February
Lovely morning, but a cool wind. Despite trying to clear my feet yesterday to let me get in the garden today, I had three appointments to keep that kind of screwed that up. Tomorrow isn’t much better and I have Cooper at the vet for his annual checkup on Wednesday. Thereafter, my diary is clear and I will strive to protect it.

Another lovely spring day, again taken up with various appointments. Yes Carnoustie committee meeting in the evening. Good progress being made.

This week seems to be starting on Tuesday. Very windy; not especially cold but quite unpleasant in the wind.
Diesel has been with us for ten years
Handsome Diesel.
Wednesday 5th March
Still really windy; lovely inside, looking out.
I will start shutting down paddocks and excluding the ponies, so that the grass startes to grwo for the sheep. We need our tractor repaired soon. So frustrating.

Back to windy this morning.
Tuesday 11th March
Murdo here today, so Dan’s been outside too. They spent most of the day in the orchard, taking down the branches of the damaged tree and cutting them up – some came back as firewood, some went on the bonfire - strimming paths and burning some rubbish (but not all).
Bonfire.

We had some rain overnight – I knew this at 4am, wen Bertie came in soaked and wanted under the duvet. We certainly need it.
By 6.30am, the sun was out and it was shaping up to be a nice day.
Tuesday 18th March
Murdo was here – Dan had to work at his desk, so Murdo finished the planting of the spinney and then planted some spare hawthorn along the burn side of Sheepfold.
I finished weeding the polytunnel – hopefully the ground elder is a least checked a bit. And planted up some lavender plug plants - 12 Munstead

Beautiful morning and a lovely day. Only did routine chores outside today, but was at the hub and at my desk. We did get outside to a cuppa, though. Love our wee pavilion. The lights for round the outside were delivered today and Dan’s bought a wee radio.
Sunrise at 6.38am.
Tuesday 25th March
Another lovely day, after rain overnight. This should get the grass growing.
