It was a 'sheep' day today. We had all sorts of weather thrown at us while penning up Larry the Ram. We had rainbows 🌈, hail, torrential rain, thunder and lightening. Eventually we managed to pen Larry and then he cheekiky skipped up the ramp into the trailer as if to say he wasn't being difficult! 😜 He is now on his home turf with his other ram playmates. We hope to see the fruits of his labour here at the beginning of May.

Now Andy has finished 'pimping up' our very own trailer he has been able to continue working on the firepit area. I have to say it's coming along nicely. Next part will be the seating, followed by more slate chippings on the floor. Then there is rope between the posts to guide you in. We already bought tbe firepit before they were packed away by the garden centre for the winter. Roll on toasting ourselves and our marshmallows by the fire. 🔥

Very busy with two quick changeovers today so rather excited to see a double header steam train go past so we could have 5 minutes break! 🤣

Saphos Railtours sent this beauty to Plymouth and back from Shrewsbury today. We even got a whistle from the driver! I think it was the LNER 61306 Mayflower built in 1948. We do love a steam train 🚂!

Always plenty to do when staying in our pods. Today we went pottery painting for three hours of arty farty fun. While you paint you can sup on delicious coffee and munch on tasty cookies and cakes. A lovely relaxing morning. Can't wait to collect our work when fired in the kiln.

These are our two chicks from this year's batch. I asked Parker and Bella, my grandchildren in Oz, to name them. Last year our only surviving chick was named Chicken Nugget which made us chuckle. Today these newbies have been named Elsa and Ana. They are being released with the rest of the chicken gang on Sunday.

This is the first of regular steam trains passing us through the season. We are extremely lucky to get a front row view! Looking forward to the return journey this evening. 😀

I have found dates when we have steam trains trundling past in full view of Pod guests. I cannot guarantee they will run as I have no control over the timetabling of the tours, but for now the dates for the Royal Duchy tours are as follows; Sunday 5th May Sunday 28th July Sunday 18th Aug Sunday 1st September I will keep looking for more dates. There should be some in June too. I will know nearer the date what time the trains will approach Dainton Tunnel.
