John and Helen started a thread telling us about their good news.

Let's start a "Good news Friday" thread - tell us happy things that have happened to you since last Friday and we can celebrate together :excited:

Found a new Mum and Dad for my two calves. Feel really happy because they are going together and I know they are going to be well loved and cared for, what more can you ask for when having to downsize your herd. :excited:

We had a lovley heifer calf and a lovely but dopey bull calf. And we finally got the meat chickens on to pasture. And Dan's strimmed the front "lawn". And John's got his irrigaion in the polytunnel. And Gary has finished the car parking area.

Just been making the most of the lovely weather. working outside as much as possible. Enjoying my garden and veg plot. Bathing ponies, trying to get out their winter coats which seem to be taking ages.

That's better, Sandy.

I had a great day with Plumseverywhere yesterday and was delighted that I managed to do over three hours driving and could still just about move afterwards. Great improvement.

My new raised beds have been planned and should be done by the weekend.

I went shopping with a friend for an outfit to wear at my son's wedding and am going to look so good in it that I might overshadow the bride. (Not quite but it does suit me)

Spinning group tomorrow.
