... that today's video is so tediously dull that I'm not going to post it. It does show how little traffic there is on our road, though.
It was impressively frosty, this morning (I set the video up in the hope of getting some nice shots of it melting as the sun hit it, but the sun never really did), and the gates were all frozen shut. It's barely rained all day, but that's going to change soon.
Mike made beagles:
They were tasty.
GB did something rather less tasty in his water bucket:
I can't decide if it's better or worse than when he carefully fills his feed bucket with poo.
As we were about to do the boys this morning, the WWOTV came over for a natter, and then Mr Next Door came out, rootled around in his barn for a bit, and then came over with a big hammer to mend our fence, which was very good of him. So, he banged things around, Mike banged things around a bit less, I held bits of fence in place and the WWOTV supervised, much to the rollingness of Mr Next Door's eyes. It's a patch job, but it's one that should hold for long enough to see if the rest of the fence is going to go, so that's a relief.
The boys had their pedicures, today. Mike's decided to take the rest of the Baby's shoes off, if only to stop him from tearing up the field so much. We'll see how he gets on without them!
(I was going to video the farrier, but I forgot. Is there anything that people would like to see videos of?)
(I really wish that DW would let me mark some of my icons as inactive, so that they still show on old posts but don't sit there cluttering up my list when I'm scrolling through vaguely looking for a change of icon!) |

I should have known it was a mistake to think that. I've just been out to check on the boys. I took the pooch in the field for a drink, and she looked at the trough and then at me as if you say "Oh noes! My human has gone crazy!", so I brought her back in, changed my trousers and pointed her at the vastly inferior bucket of house water, instead.
Bleh.
Mike's New Toy says 3mm in the last hour, but I'm not sure how good it is at measuring the kind of rain that moves horizontally rather than just falling from the sky....
(Need a new userpic. Alison, have you got one of me in my silly hat?) |

I know that I said the same thing last year, but this feels like a very long tail....
