Weather it will or weather it wont

06/04/2020 by mike

22/03/2020 by mike

Sunday March 22nd This week has definitely been interesting, the lockdown here appears to be working and has been extended in a lot of ways including businesses either closing down or employees working from home. We have not really been anywhere apart from walking the dog and ourselves, Maria went to town to get animal […]

Been a long time

20/08/2018 by mike

It has been a long time since I put down any stuff on this blog but it is just that I do not want to repeat myself every year with the same things and so it was better to wait until I had at least some new material. Lets go back to April, on the […]

Winters come and go

01/04/2018 by mike

They definitely do come and go but this year it has been quite strange, we had loads of snow at the end of November and start of December and we actually went up into the mountains snowboarding which we have never managed that early in the season, it did not last for long and that […]

Weather or what…

17/12/2017 by mike

In the past two months the one thing that dominated was the weather, it started very warm at the beginning of October then we had some cold spells, floods, lots of snow and then storms, I believe it is classified as variable!!!! Mid October was really good, the Autumnal colours had to be seen to […]

October so soon!

It has been a long time coming

02/07/2017 by mike

How time flies they say and in this case it has really rocketed along and now three months have passed since my last blog. So much has gone on since April, the sheep went outside in the field after their winter in the sheep shed but only four days later they were back inside due […]
