We are lambing in the paddy fields at Crake Trees Manor, 6 am – 4 singles 4 sets twins and a set of triplets all alive, quite remarkable considering the weather. Ruth did the school run as all was quite on the Bed and Breakfast front. Kay was busy doing the Brew House self catering cottage which is always booked.
Four hours later Colin arrives, we move twins to back of beathams 1 and singles to b of b 2 (less shelter in there), we have a casualty in one of the pens Colin removed its jacket and an orphan gets a new mum!!!
More problems motor bike trailer gets a flat tyre, and we are low on petrol.
Into Penrith 4.30 pm Harold’s Tyres ever reliable fix it, tea with Laura Lee and Bill Back into my work shop sort out wood for benches for Arboretum in Oxford then home for supper
