Highlighting a Very Special Little Blogger

Picture from Veg's Blog - Her lunch on 12th June.

Just a quick little post to highlight a very special little Blogger.

'Veg' posts every school day with pictures of her school dinners, and her ratings for them. Her Blog NeverSeconds was rudely interupted when the local 'powers that be' decided to ban her Blog, or rather the photos she puts on. Normality should soon return, they have had to reverse their opinion due to popular demand.

What harm was she doing!! She's raised thousands of pounds for charity. A clever and inventive little girl, she has my utmost admiration.

I also read that today, Sue. Big Brother comes to mind....but the people fought back and won!

Good for her, if it helps to improve the standard of school meals (and some of the 'meals' she's shown are unbelievable). And I'd noticed she's actually quite upbeat, fair and complimentary about the meals most of the time, it's not like she was constantly slagging them off.

I also read this and reposted it on Facebook. It is amazing that last night when her dad posted, it seems she had raised "nearly £2000" for Mary's Meals, but when I made a little donation earlier today, she had got well over £11K. I think she is doing a fantastic job and I am sure all the money will do wonders at Mary's Meals, as it is a very worthwhile cause. xx

I am glad she can keep recording those meagre school dinners and raise funds for such a worthwhile cause.

So glad she was reinstated. Those meals do look revolting though!

I linked that to my Facebook Sue. Someone commented she was an annoying 'tot'. I say, good luck to her and good she is showing an interest.

This was my Blog, just me writing about our day to day life learning all about and then living the smallholding life. First we started on a farm in Oxfordshire, then we moved to a smaller place in Berkshire (both in England) and then we found a place of our very own at the bottom of a hillside in North Wales. Along for the ride were all our various animals, and we ended up with just our dogs, Suky and Mavis, our cat Ginger .... who secretly thinks he's one of the canine gang, a sheep called Ethel who wandered in off the road and stayed... and a roving band of egg laying chickens that live cheek by jowl with the local wildlife.

We grow our own fruit and vegetables, selling surplus plants and edibles at the gate. We sell the eggs the chickens lay, we reuse, recycle and rethink ... and life ticks over at a pace that suits us.

It was simply the wild and wacky ramblings of a 50 something townie turned country girl called Sue, who lost her heart to a sailor and started a new life in the country .... many years ago. On a path that took us from Cumbria to Oxfordshire, to Berkshire and then we found our home at the bottom of a wet and windy Welsh hillside by a busy main road.

Pull up a chair, grab a coffee and relax into a world of dogs, cats, chickens, polytunnels and veggies with the occasional grass munching sheep thrown in for good measure.

Sue xx

I use it to chart the day by day, week by week, year by year goings on in mine and Lovely Hubby's life. In it I also express my views and opinions, and say what I do and occasionally how I do it. I am hoping that this will prove to be a useful reminder for myself of how we did things, as we continue in our learning process.
