Hope you all had a great Christmas. it was a lot warmer than last year. It was minus 15 degrees and all our pipes had frozen. We had to carry all the water from the house to the animals. It was exhausting.

This year it's the opposite there is too much water! The pigs are walking in muddy soup, so I decided to build a new pig house in a paddock we haven't yet used.

It only took a couple of hours and I am really pleased with result. The pigs are very happy

Leonie and Cliff came to stay with us for a few days and they fell in love with Rosie s last puppy. We were so delighted they wanted her as they will spoil her and really look after her. I think they are going to call her Tiger Daisy.

The Parson gang have turned up to stay at Sutton Mawr for the New Year. They came last year, there are 14 of them and a few dogs.
