Sorry for not blogging this week. Its been manic and my camera is on the blink.

Martyn my very patient nieghbour has been up to rearrange my balls and also light them up. The christmas tree now looks lovely.

We were visited by the Lyon family for the third time this year. Scott their middle son wanted his birthday down on the farm. So they spent the day clearing up all the sheds and yards. It was a messy business but their all helped out.  The animals were all very happy.

They are now fully qualified egg collectors, as they did it all on their own and no breakages..

The puppies are very mobile! The little monkeys are running all over the place. Aunty Dora is taking her role very seriously.

Sarah Clarke revisited Sutton mawr for a treat, and fell in love with the puppies...

Jessie our last pregnant cow has had a massive red bull calf, which we are going to call Rudolf.

All the cows and their calves are doing really well....

Our very patiant and helpful nieghbour was at hand to assist in the erection of the Christmas tree.  It was up in no time ....

and before I knew what was happening I was putting on the decorations.

I have been informed by "the boss" that I have put my big balls at the top and it should be the other way round.  We are going to have to rearrange the balls and  install the lights.  I will have to talk nicely to our nieghbour, to do a return visit with his big machine.

The whole process was overlooked by our guests Douglas Hughes and Sandra Martin, who stayed in the cottage, they came down to see the rugby. They had a lovely time, and enjoyed seeing the puppies

We got our Christmas tree today, it's massive and its going to to look spectacular in the courtyard. But we are going to need at least 3 strong men to put it up, we are hoping to put it up tomorrow and decorate it. Watch this space.

The puppies are seriously cute...

They are now mobile.

Full tonight with fans going to the rugby. However we do have a french family who have come down from Kent to pick up a new puppy. They have brought a parrot with them. Our first parrot to stay at Sutton Mawr. His name is Charlie. It is his first time to Wales

Trio had her third calf on Tuesday. Its a bull calf and going to call it Moses. Photos tomorrow
