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 tired after bagging up 918 sausages 🤣 which make up bags of 6 in a pack of honey roast pork, cumberland, Lincolnshire and pork and leek. Bacon in two weeks. Another busy Friday!!!

Today is mucking out the poultry day. The compost heap is quite away from the coop area. These five lambs are very nosy. 🤣

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.

The construction of the firepit seating area has commenced, although slightly hampered by Andy's 'labourer' 😂

Following a walk out with the German Shepherd Rescue Sunday walking Group, we thought we would repeat the walk today, but in reverse. Also managed to have a coffee stop on the way round of course! Fabulous tea room. Great dog walk with plenty of water to cool down in. 🐾

From this to that in less than 3 years! Quite amazing really.

The wooden sleepers were delivered by Southern Timber last week, and today Jewsons are delivering the ballast and shingle ready for building the firepit seating in the communal area. The rain stops play for now but will keep you posted on the progress. Currently work is going on fencing more areas for the sheep as they are running out of decent grass. And we need to wean the lambs from their Mums soon . That will be noisy! 🤣🐑

For the second year running we have won a Customer Choice Award for our pods with Awaze Vacation Rentals . We have achieved an overall rating of 4.75 out of 5, or higher, for the 2023 season through Feefo guest feedback. Thank you to those guests who have opted to leave a review. Once I get a couple of frames they will be displayed in their respective pods.
