Career plans

Sadly I found the little sparrow I was trying to nurse back health dead this morning. It may of been down to my oat bran meal I made for him or my lack of nursing skills. Probably should take off being a carer from my  'when I grow up I want to be job list '.

Perhaps I should of tried my hand at acting and gone to the extras casting in St Antonin this week along with all the other expats who are eagerly waiting to be in a scene in the film being shot by Steven Spielberg in September, set in this area.




 Gorgon has his hearing back, the grunt and whine of a starved pig can be heard when he hears you approach the barn doors. Watch out gite guests his on fine form waiting for tasty treats. Wonder if he could get a staring role, the films based on a book where an Indian restaurant opens up opposite a michelin stared one. Food based sounds good..

Weeding

Potatoes A sad looking patch Hunting for carrots The weather has now gone from one extreme to the other from rain, rain and a bit more rain to hot, sunny and hotter. Time to access the veggie patch after I planted everything in one hit and then it got very damp and soggy. Well the potatoes are growing well, although they are going to be a lot later this year, kind of Earlie's for late ones and late ones maybe ready for Christmas dinner ( if they survive the bugs, rabbits and moles). The weeds have and still are growing really well, this morning was spent finding the carrots and parsnips, which I have with no help from Sorrel, who after a quick sniff lazed under the shade of the apple tree (which by the looks of it hasn't got hardly any apples on it?) The poor herb seeds sowed don't look to good or the french and runner beans, think a hungry mouse have nibbled on them so I will have to resow (once I have weeded -again)

A problematic Ewe

While Master C and Miss F were here over the weekend we took the opportunity for their help in moving the two ewes, Gorgon and Thumberlina to the field where the donkeys had been. What with all the rain we have had lately the grass grow super quick. The only problem was Miss Fatty did not want to move from her safe field (if only she knew she was moving to new lush grass). It took farmer J and Master C to try moving her after pushing from me and Master C had failed and she fell to the floor not moving an inch. There try also failed so they were both lead through the field in another direction. Of course once in the new field there was no looking back. Gorgon on the other hand was a breeze to move, as long as you have food he will follow, you just need to make sure you have enough food!
