web site (almost)

Here we are in July, still hot! At last we have all three babies Fleur, Dameli, and George. typically the boy, George was he weedy one, lightest and lazy. Starts raining, and all others go inside George just sits in the rain, so he has had to suffer the indignanty of wearing the asbo coat. At least we could see him in the long grass. Dameli arrived he day my daughter got back from Australia hence the australian name, it means affection, and she is very affectionate, or nosey is another word for it.
Now finally we can get them sheared which happens this Friday evening - not really looking forward to it as it means upsetting the girls a bit, but better than them getting too hot, and the fleeces can be processed straight away as the mill are finally get around to processing the fleeces I bought in April. So within a couple of weeks we will have some stock and the web site will be up and running.
We have also taken delivery of our first lot of wild flowers ready to be potted up and labelled for selling - that's my job today. Just got to design write and print all the explanatory labels to stick on pots!
Bit of potential disaster with hay fields - they still not cut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The contractor is all behind and now I am wondering if we will ever get any hay. It must have no value in it either nutritionally or price to sell so not very happy. He promised to get it done this week, but depends on weather. It is not as if we have had bad weather, so not sure what going on there. Tractor will be bought before next hay time if we still here.
Now that this blog is connected to web site I will must keep it up to date with our news each week - I think I may have said that before.
