The week

28 hours was spent in Toulouse, Anita and left the car in the metro car park met Miss F, dumped our bags of at her new apartment before we walked into the centre and par took in a little retail therapy, afternoon tea. Meeting Master C and his girlfriend  for a bite to eat. Doing the french thing of coffee and pain au chocolate for breakfast more shopping and taking in the sights.

I am getting to the end of my cardigan a back, two sides (which took three attempts of completing ) and a sleeve down, a sleeve, neck and button band to go it is on hold at the moment while I knit a few donkeys.

The cows are making the most of the last bits of grass, very soon electric fencing will be put up to stop them tearing up the fields as it gets wetter here.

Franklin's sugar levels are still way to high, his insulin has been put up. His weight is still decreasing and while on Saturday's evening walk he started to behave oddly as if he was drunk, a quick sugar water syringe and apple sponge gave him enough sugar to stop his hyperglycemia. Looks like another day at the vets.

At last Sandy's piglets were moved today. It has just been too wet to get the trailer, and be able to move it by the pigs. Once the ground had dried out a bit the trailer was put in place in front of Sandy's enclosure while piglets were trained to come in for food. Once all in trailer shut, ear tags put in and trailer moved up the hill - or not it was too wet and slippery. So six little porkers were carried individually in a chicken crate and placed in their new enclosure.

Other members of the house hold slept. Milo is beginning to look like a felted dog, he is in need of a major groom and bath. His never liked a brush and now his blind a bath and groom freaks him out. He can wait for his owner to come back and help in the meantime he
has a little snip with the scissors as he sleeps.
