All Fed Up !! ......

The horses....tucking into a new bale of hay !!
An orderley....queue......please !!

Haggis is waiting patiently...for his new bale !!.......

The girls on their way out into the snow this morning......
It has been another......freezing cold day...with the odd sprinkle of snow.....for a change !
Tonight I am all fed up.......not literally !!......just in a matter of fact. Today I have spent all afternoon.......doing one job or another.....infact...I have had my 'Jill of all Trades'.....hat on !!
I have had the tractor out......clearing the track.....then it was a case of putting some hay out for the horses....and the cows...to tide them over for another few days......whilst the snow is on the ground. Apparently it is going to get much colder......great....its already been minus 5.5.

I got all my jobs done....by tea-time......we had a walk down the track..with the dogs and for some reason.....I ended up at the post box !.....there's no way.....I was going to have any post !!

But it was a nice walk........the snow changes the landscape completely.....and I am really quite pleased with my track clearing.....snow-plough....even if I do say so myself. I just hope that we don't get any high winds or any more snow....that will just fill in the track. As it stands at the moment....its as good as I can get it....as long as I can get out ....if I have to.....that's the overall aim....in cases of emergencies.........

The girls have been out today.....knee deep in snow......they were quite confused...by the whole experience....you could almost see the confusion on their faces.....then someone decided to move and they all followed.....had a little walk round then it was into the field shelter......and to the hay !!

As evening approached....it was time to form an orderly queue at the gate...in for supper then off to bed....for an early night........so I am done for another...day.....just relaxing in front of the fire......its the only thing to do after..........another busy day .........maybe a snooze later !!!

It will be a week tomorrow since we had post! Typically I'm waiting for a parcel and my tax disc.

I love the photos - each one is a story. I think I need a Haggis here.
We were 3 degrees F this morning. That's -16C. We warmed up quickly, thank goodness.

You are an example to us all Jayne, puts it all into perspective down here. We have a cold wind and some ice but nothing like weather oop north!
