Snowed In!!

It's official...we are snowed in!

The snow is lying a good eight inches thick, and still falling, the vehicles are buried and world is a white magical place.

I fed the chickens and tried to persuade them to leave the henhouse for a few minutes whilst I cleaned it out for them, but they refused to go, so they sat on the perches while I changed the newspaper lining the floor.

Two of the Welsummers were brave and took to the air, but on landing refused to go anywhere else so we carried them back to the house and in they ran to tell the other of their adventures in 'the white stuff'.

The pigs are cosy in the barn, and returned to their bedroom immediately upon finishing their breakfast. We set off to walk the dogs, Sophie's fur soon filled up with little snowballs, and we had to remove Rosy's collar in the end as her name tag kept turning into an icy snowball that weighed her down unnecessarily.

Alan threw many snowballs at me, but the dogs soon chased him off!

Little Rosy was up to her back in the snow and did her best Meercat impression, standing up on her hind legs to see where to go next. The world is white and looks set to stay that way for a couple of days, Lovely Hubby is working from home and I am staying indoors preparing for the Farmers Market, in case it can go ahead on Sunday. We are fully stocked up with food for us and the animals and our only concern is getting Jason back to University on Friday, but that may have to be delayed!! Keep warm and have fun! Sue xx
