The thaw begins
Well today I have been out in the polytunnel a lot as it is finally above freezing here - HURRAH! So I have been able to do some work, cleaning pots, sweeping the floor and generally making it all tidy and ready to start the 2011 growing season. Joyous times!
Hens are still disgusted though...the snow has not gone away so they are inside the Mega Hen Pen and are refusing to set foot in the nasty white cold stuff...
I also cleaned out the guinea pig hutch and the rabbit hutch, sorted out the study and did some crafting and mending.

Christmas Evening outside at Compost Mansions.
Brrrrr -14 outside...Brrrr
The Feathery Laidees were NOT impressed, despite hot porridge, mealworms and cheese treats.

More about Christmas Day
So, amongst some lovely presents I recieved were....
A Cheese making kit....for hard and soft cheese, with a press and moulds and all...
A Lace making kit...
The book of the TV series Edwardian Farm and the 2 Stephen Fry autobiogs to read
and a bottle of Spietzia face oil, which I love, it smells of roses and vanilla.
Feel very lucky and pampered today!
Compostman and Compostgirl seemed to appreciate their gifts as well and we have had a quiet, friendly family day together...which was the very best gift of all!
