Farrier this morning to trim 9 ponies' feet, mechanic at lunchtime to replace the bashed rear light and a dead front bulb, dentist in the afternoon (tells me I need a filling in 2 weeks and now have to pay fees cos the system changed again and not in favour of those without kids or benefit claims!).
In between I was mucking out all the coops, slashing weeds in the orchard and nettles in the front paddock. Having sold 12 pullets on Saturday the 10 POLs went last night which means more time and space but still got to deep clean their coops and set up for the new Welsummers coming next week along with more chicks.
Also got 2 loads washing out and dry on the line which is becoming rarer these days, but my hands are done for just now, barely clutching a cup of tea and thinking longingly of the days I would shove oven chips in for tea rather than try and cook from scratch. Might eat a few more plums off the tree and call that tea, they'll be falling off soon so need assistance I say!
