Spring

Spring At Copper Meadow at Last the sun is out and gardening well under way

   

Let out at last

Lovely weather to test drive the new transport, Husband Eric is now mobile not allowed to put his foot to ground too much so has purchased this, top speed 8mph peace at last if he goes too far he will run out of battery!! At least it take him out and about the farm for a while though he has to keep his leg up so will have to rig something up to hold his leg. recycling the bag lakeland should be pleased.

Sunny Weather

Yes it is only March, this is 25th March on Polzeath beach, what a lovely day said goodbye to guests packed some lunch and took the grandchildren, and all they did was dig and dig, so we do have good weather in Cornwall, even had a paddle in the sea not as cold as I thought it would be.

Just returned from the Farm Stay AGM in Northumberland, lovely to catch up with old friends. This is the nearest I will get to a great wall love to go to the Great wall of China but Hadrians Wall will have to do at the moment.

The new web site is up and running,it looks good, at last the grandchildren go home today, it has been a bit of a juggling act geting breakfast for guests and getting them off to school, common complaint is we don't do that at home, when with me Granny's rules rule ok.

Farm update

It seems such a long time since I posted a blog,

the garden is at last taking shape, and the water feature is much admired by my guests.

The last of the silage is being done at this moment, that will be the 3rd cut, it will just leave one field of wheat to cut, the rest of the corn has either been crimped or put into the whole crop pit ready for the winter feed for the cows.

Rams go to market on Wednesday, and we say goodbye to daughter Fiona and Max and Amy as they make their way back to Hong Kong, not before I get all 7 grandchildren together for a photo something that I have been trying to do for ages, I had hoped they would do something for our 40th anniversary, but it is left up to me to sort, so fun and games tomorrow as I am sure that Sam would rather be out with Grandad on the farm.

Men and Gardening

How is it that when the men get into the garden, everything seems to have to be done with the digger. My dear husband of nearly 40yrs decided to dig the foundations for the wall to be built outside, it will be lovely when it is done. But first of all their is a bit of hedge in the way, so as not to open the garden up too much to the road they just pushed the piece of hedge concerned inwards. Now we shall either have a lovely green piece of hedge, or as I suspect a brown dead looking piece, unless that is of coarse unless it rains, which at the moment seems highly unlikely.
I must admit the visibility outside is better, I hope that the Jenny wrens will return tomorrow. I will post a photo tomorrow.
