Lambing season is creeping up on us...
Posted: Monday, 05 March 2007 |
We are going to a lambing course in toon on the 8th. Elsie-yow is fit to burst: she's so fat with lambs that she can't get into any comfortable position. She's going to lamb several weeks ahead of the rest of the flock so we have her in a lambing pen with lots of extra water and also grain + sugar beet.
Sigurd and Swain - the twa caddie lambs Erlend bought me for Easter last year. They are MUCH bigger now. But I couldn't resist posting lamb pics!
The lambs got loose one day and came looking for me in the hoose!
King Tut loves to play with any living creature.
I couldn't resist tossing in a hedge hog photo! (It was in the same file as the lamb photos)

Ah, spring lamb in France, beautiful and very tasty. It reminds me of when I worked in Provence; for a year actually!

Me thinks that Lerwick Trevor, has been reading books and/or watching DVD's/videos. I could be wrong...

"A Year in Provence" perhaps?

If Lerwick Trevor says he worked in Provence for a year, I shall take it as stipulated. No reason to think otherwise. # I must admit that I do not think French lamb is special. I am partial to NZ lamb myself.

Aww.. Caddie lambs are so cute! We looked after one for a week last year! They are so much fun!

So...I traded my quiet cabin in the Alaskan woods for the howling winds of Orkney and life on a farm.
