    ooo yes Davesnave, they are cheeky little boglets, full of beans lol.. costing me a fortune in bedding lol


    going to phone vet this morning, for advice, or a call out, her boobies are quite sore, and she has cuts around them, where the boglets have been cutting her etc..


    might be over reacting, but she is such a good mum etc.. I want anything to put her off being a good mum next time... Also once the vet tells/shows us what to do, then we can do it ourselves next time..

    :rotfl:CTC they are so funny :rotfl: I am sure mummy pig will appreciate your care. Feeding one baby is tough enough let alone feeding so many excitable babies :D

    Rumlet is finally snoozing so as usual I have been whizzing about trying to get the essentials done so I can work in the garden. Plus I am waiting for it to warm up a bit outside :rotfl::o:rotfl: I am such a fair weather gardener :rotfl:

    So sorry to read about your cat, Dave. You & DW will miss her :(

    Good news on the kidneys though, I bet you're 'relieved' about that.

    Nice & sunny here, but looking outside I can see the mist is starting to roll in again.

    Off to watch CTC's boglets video now :D

    Cold snap forecast for later in the week and into BH, best to plan on fleecing or bringing tender plants indoors overnight.

    Took a day off today. Went to Rosemoor en-route to the shops and ended-up soaked, but the first 90minutes were fine.:cool:

    Will dig out a picture later.

    Back here, there was no rain at all.

    On our return, we learned that the big barns across the road had been broken into last night and their CCTV destroyed. :eek: They have plenty of film, so it's hopeful the Police will ID the single-handed criminal. He must've been a bit thick to record his own image while destroying the cameras!

    Nothing was taken. All very odd. :think:

    Sorry to hear about your dear old pusskins, Dave, took me back to dear Brodie's last days when he was staying with us. He enjoyed a time out in the back garden snuffing the wind :) , and sunshine in the front garden on a warm day :) , and did manage to hang on to have his "Mum and Dad" take him on his final trip. There's a cat looks very like him we often see in the evenings when we're sitting on our front porch. I always think of Brodie then.

    LiR, sad to hear about your much loved Dog not feeling so good. :( Happy that you are in charge and will Know When. :) Hugs. :)

    Sorry been missing, have been reading but no energy to reply. Had GrandTwins over twice last week, we took them to the lottie on one of the days, and they met up with tadpoles for the first time! :j

    This week had two long sessions at the lottie weeding, there's still a lot to do! :rotfl: Yesterday was very hot and sunny, today the sun hazed over before we left, which made it more comfortable to be honest. Brought back flowering branches of kale to have with garlic chicken for tea. OH planted the 1st and 2nd earlies at the lottie, 2nd earlies last week I think, and 1st earlies around 2 weeks earlier. We plan to put the main crop in the garden, unless we have more than we have space for, in which case we'll have a few at the lottie too.

    Rummer, sounds like you have been doing a LOT in your garden! :A :j :beer: Any chance of some photos at some stage?

    CTC your little piggies look amazing! :j :)

    OH planted cauliflowers at lottie yesterday, but only put tunnel over one row. The second (short) row we found the birds had been at 2 of the 4 plants. :( I was cross as he didn't put all the best plants in the protected row. :mad: He is clueless as a gardener really, and needs micromanaging! (rolls eyes) :eek:

    Glad you had a day of rest Dave, you work so hard :)

    Maggie Sounds as if you are making good progress all round!

    Well we all got out into the garden :j Rumlet slept peacefully in his pram in the shade. DD and friends watered things and did bits and pieces and I weeded like there was no tomorrow! Ended up fighting with some horrid root system in one of the raised beds which I think may be from the hedge. Long term it will win however it was beaten back today ;)

    Hubby fussed over his composting area and rearranged the compost bins (again) and then unprompted brought out the lawn mower and dealt with the side garden :D I was tickled pink! He is being very supportive about the garden and brought me home some plants as a treat instead of flowers :)

    The whole place is looking so much better and even though rain is forecast for the next few days I am happy with the progress we are making.
