Spring

Well there is a definite feel of Spring in the air ! There are two tiny spots of snow remaining on the top of Burnhope Seat, so we could still have 'lambing' storms. Definitely March weather, cold, sleet laden wind and warm sun if you can hide behind a wall! We saw two lambs at the top of Ireshopeburn lonnen the other day, its really much too early for lambing up here so we hope the weather isnt too capricious.
Poor Oscar is suffering he has probably got some crystals in his bladder which makes him very uncomfortable, we had to get a urine sample yesterday. Fun getting a sample from a cat!! Well its gone off today and hopefully we will get the right stuff to sort him out!
With luck the RAV should be back tomorrow, I really dont like the Corsa and will be glad to see the back of it.
The hens are laying well, although they are making hay in the garden while my back is bad and I can't get out there. I can see they have had a lovely time scratching up all the moss in the lawn and wrecking the flower beds! Because of Paul's illness last year I didnt get any gardening done at all, John and Angus kept the lawn under control and that was about it. This year is going to be fun as it is very overgrown!
