So much for hot weather.  We have just endured more cold wet days. The sheep have suffered most. We finally got them all shorn just as the good weather ended, they look much happier with out their long coats but they made a fuss asking to be let into the fold so that they could shelter in the shed at night. Our sheep have learnt that they have options, and they have now taken the initiative and begun to ask for things they need. I am not sure if this is good or bad!

There has been a big family event this week when my adopted son was contacted by his half siblings in the UK and actually spoke to his birth mother. We are all so happy for him because he has wanted to find out more about his past for a long time. So far it seems that the information that the social services provided us with is basically correct. My son is rather over come by it all but he has plans to visit the UK with his partner already in place so now he may get to meet his UK family at the same time.
