I feel all lost...
« on: November 23, 2011, 08:55:27 pm »
 :'( :'( :'(
my little smallholding is almost empty :'(
The goats have gone, the sheep have gone and there is only the chickies and muscovies left!

Fortunately the goats and sheep have gone to the billy and tup respectively ;D

I have had a quick note from my friend with the tup to say......
I START LAMBING 20TH APRIL (ish)  ;D ;D ;D I have missed lambing for too many years, Roll on spring lambs AND kids to hopefully ;D
We'll turn the dust to soil,
Turn the rust of hate back into passion.
It's not water into wine
But it's here, and it's happening.
Massive,
but passive.


Bring the peace back

Maybe you should occupy yourself getting some fertile eggs for your chooks and ducks while you're at it ;)

I know what you mean tho, I haven't bred foals for 2 years and in spring I'll have one again :)  Should have been 2 but one aborted 10 days ago :( Still looking forward to the patter of tiny hooves again tho :)

phew, you had me worried there for a minute!

I really could only see the title and top two lines - I'm without my "windows" for a week while I have new lenses fitted in the same frames, so have to have the laptop zoomed up to ridiculous-ness! :0
