Still awaiting summer

Well - way too long since I posted, but after both a successful lambing and much easier calving than last year, plus a massive summer flood, all we need now is for some decent weather to make some winter fodder. We have a show team of Shetland sheep - Cumberland Show saw a second for Toddy in the ram class and a second for Toffee and third for Agnes in the ewe class. Skelton show was then cancelled due to the weather, but we had a day out at North Lonsdale near Ulverston last week, and although we won no prizes in the minority breeds section, we had a lovely time.
New for next year, we will have only two rooms for B&B - the en-suite as it is now, and the current twin room which will have private use of the bathroom. This room will be available as either twin, or king size double. These alterations will take place in November, ready for our February re-opening.
