Gillian came back at the weekend to scan Jura - and she's in lamb with a single. Mind you, she's going to lamb about the end of May. She must have been caught the day we brought them home, just about. I'm really pleased - I didn't want her to feel left out, with no lamb. Now all I have to do is get them safely through the lambing. Oh, the responsibility! I'll have to get my lambing kit ready.

Gillian also had a look at their feet and they're fine. No scald, no footrot and my trimming is OK.

And while she was here, she took our order for our Christmas turkey - her Mum raises free range Kelly bronze, so we put our name down for one. Nothing like being prepared, you know.
