Several people have asked where I get my photo books from. We have always used Snapfish. I’m sure that there are other companies out there. They are not particularly cheap but we are happy with the quality etc. We also get them to print our Christmas cards, and photos.

We are well and truly back into the routine of school now. Why does fourth term always seem so packed before it even starts? The girls and Country Boy are heading off on a 4 day school camp in week 3 to the South Coast. Toby is going to spend a week at my parents, leaving me to go to work and do all those other unexciting things that need to be done to keep the farm ticking over.

The Sow is due to have babies again soon. This time we are hoping to sell the babies once they are about 8 weeks old and weaned. Knowing our luck, CB and the girls will be away when she gives birth, leaving me to work out what to do.
