Title: Princess Portia's coming home ...
Post by: Beewyched on June 14, 2011, 09:05:04 pm
Off to drop 2 of the boys at Wishaw tomorrow  :yum: then down to HappyHippy's to get my big baby girl back - it's not been the same without her, even though I know she's been well looked after (& enjoying herself  ;) ) 

I can't wait  ;D

She's had an extended honeymoon with Big Red for the past couple of months (my fault, not the boar's  ::) ) & we are expecting to hear the sound of little trotters by the end of next month. 

 :love: :pig: :love:

Portia has now left the building  ;) :'(
Loaded like a dream (just as well you're small enough to go right into the trailer Lynne  ;)) and is winging her way home as I type. She's such a lovely little pig and I didn't think I'd miss her.............. but there's a wee empty space in the field  :(
Looking forward to becoming a granny (in a roundabout way  ;)) and patiently awaiting news of the piglets (in around 6 weeks)

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D (and don't forget the Tamworth weaners  ::) ;D)
I'm not putting them in with Red, they'd eat him for breakfast :yum: :o ;)
Moving Rora (prize winner  ;)) down to get to know him  ::) and hopefully get some pretty piglets later in the year  :love: :pig: :love:
The Large Blacks are going in the BIG field, close enough to see the others, but far enough away not to frighten them  ;)
