Spring's Arrived!



It's been such a busy week this week...we had a big shipment of bedding arrive last Tuesday, which should keep us going for the next 3-4 months or so.  We order a tonne at a time, so to help with the heaving about of bags, Ted kindly lets us load the tractor to move it across the yard.  Tufty is so funny as she's really not bothered about the tractor at all.  She was snoozing in the sunshine at the time, and just about opened an eye when the tractor went by to see what all the fuss was about with the boys running in the yard.  Graham caught this photo of the loading of the tractor beginning.

This week was volunteer Catherine's birthday and Gill made one of her wonderful cakes - Catherine has had a couple of lambs born this week and is hand rearing them, so the sheep theme was very appropriate.



I've also done 2 talks this week, one on Thursday evening for the ladies of the Stoke Cannon WI, and the other this afternoon for The Monday Club in Witheridge - thank you very much everyone for inviting me to talk about p4p's work, and for your wonderful donations.

And possibly the best thing..we've had about 4 days of dry weather in a row - probably for the first time since last spring - having some sunshine is AMAZING!  We've managed to go for a couple of walks and enjoyed seeing the snowdrops and daffodils.
