Meals on wheels

The girls have settled nicely into their new field, they had obviously been eating so well that when I went to give Rory his bottle at lunchtime they were all sat chewing the cud, every single one of them.

Rory wasn't in the slightest bit interested in his bottle either, so he is no doubt full from the nice lush green grass.

I had to laugh this evening as Layla had obviously been rolling in leaves and was walking round with a collection stuck to her, which Ursula was happily picking off much to Layla's disgust. In the end she went tearing off to her mum Willow, humming away, you could tell from the look on her face she was saying something along the lines of 'Tell her mum she's pulling my fleece'.

After a trip to Morpeth this morning to get some pain killers for Paul, milk for Rory and petrol for the quad I have been harrowing the girls resting field. This is something Paul usually enjoys doing, driving round the field at speed generally causing a mess! Today he was only able to watch me out of the window.
