The say you should never work with children or animal but, as the name of my blog kind of gives it away, I work (and live) with both on a daily basis. Both Boo and the animals do funny things on a daily basis. Like Clover the rabbit who mysteriously escaped from the hutch without…
You have probably heard of tennis elbow. You may have even heard of trench foot (found mostly these days, when you’ve worn cheap Primark pumps in the rain too many times). There is a lesser known ailment that many of you may have suffered from and not even realised. It is called-Sudocrem finger. I did…

My word of the week for this week is How could it not be? From the moment the first one was born last Saturday morning, it’s been a whirlwind at the farm. Hubster has been out at all hours day and night. We’ve only got one pet lamb (that we have to…
Ahoy there me hearties. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a Gran who is a Pirate,” and while I can’t lay claim to that, I have got a friend who is. You see, I have worked at a Catholic newspaper for over ten years and one of the lovely people who writes features for…
Today we have a guest blogger at Farmer’s Wife and Mummy. We are entering a competition with La Redoute to capture the secrets of French style. Given the fact that Boo, even at three, is much more stylish than me, I will hand over to her. I may only be three but, even in…
