Probably to get out to free range. before the dog people moved here I free ranged them (our gardens aren't fully fenced) but now I can't because of them. I'm going to work on getting the garden fenced so they can have at least some free range time (i do let them out if I'm physically in the...
bloody neighbors dog got my lavaynder marans this week so furious, second one in about 6 weeks. They aren't fenced which really pee's me off. I went and saw her and she is going to pay for some new ones so that is at least something. I'll have to be better at keeping on top of clipping thier...
Hi all! After a disturbingly (for first half of April) hot week or 2 it has turned again! I got out in the garden this morning before my shirt got too wet! The girls loved all the weeds / aphid covered kale etc!

Yep! It was 24c when I got home from work yesterday! However today is blowing a hooley and cold. Evenings are still cool, we are still lighting the wood burner! Back to around 18-20 from tomorrow and for the foreseeable. We've not had a frost in a couple of weeks, I'm guessing it's waiting to...
Ahhh I had to look it up, the Cantal! Nice! I don't think I've ever been there but you are right not far at all.
Gorgeous spring weather here! We set up our spa a few days ago and are enjoying watching the girls from there in the evenings!
Oh your cats are adorable!!! Thanks for your real world thoughts on the situation. I think I'll give it a few days of leaving all the run and food area gates open at night to let Loki the Fierce Fluffball wander around and see if that helps. I haven't seen it again since I left it open 2 nights...
