Just for Jim

Realise that it has been a very long time since my last post - 11 weeks for those who were counting - and that there has been lots going on here at Moyhill that I could have written about.

My only excuse is that life here has been busy with animal and poultry husbandry and with preparing and planting our new veg beds - Linda currently has 20 different vegetables planted out. We still have the hockey girls and Rocky, 5 ducks and three meat hens which will be ready for the chop next week and we have already butchered two meat hens and 9 bantam cockerels - so there is still plenty in the freezer.

Jim commented today that he was missing the blog not knowing that it was a special day here at Moyhill because we have just collected our first sheep - two ewes already christened Maureen and Isobel (Mo & Izzy for short) - with three lambs. Should have lamb ready for the freezer by late October!

Will try to report on a more regular basis - and perhaps even catch up on some of the things that have happened over the last month or two.

Can now add 'sheep farmer' to my CV!!!
