Now winter may be cold, wet, windy and grim…..but it can be pretty too! It also has it’s cosy moments. These long dark evenings get you thinking don’t they? For some bizarre reason I found myself ruminating on whether or not I could still run tonight, no idea why! When I actually thought about it …

Let’s get STRAIGHT to the Christmas miracle shall we? Do you remember little Holly who I was fostering? Well, Christmas Eve I received a text from the rescue asking if I could bring Holly in as a friend of the kennel manager was interested in adopting her. A flicker of hope fluttered in my heart …
Daughter meeting Holly and making sure the other two don’t feel left out. Game on! Fearless she is….FEARLESS! As I type, here she is on my knee, this results in endless typos! So guys…..while she’s quiet-ish, I would like to wish you all a wonderful, wonderful Christmas, and also I’d like to say a huge …

At times they almost looked refined! The apartment we stayed at was at the top …
While I am trying to fix the timed- out comment problem….please copy your replies in case you are timed out. A view from my greenhouse through CLOSED doors…..dogs have to run and all that! I have spent the week hiding in there! The weather this last week has matched my health! It has been wild, …
Over the last week there has been a steady influx of tiny hoglets. They are about the size of golfballs and are amazingly cute. This one is supposed to be tucked up under that towel but instead prefers to run around the top of it! You would be surprised at how much food these babies …
At the moment, it seems to be a bit of a battle trying to get anything done….at all! Everywhere I look, jobs need doing. The windows are taking on a stain-glassed/mottled-spiderweb appearance as it’s been so long since I cleaned them and the ironing is beginning to take over the house! Every time I go …
