'Marshmallow' has a 'toasted' look about her feathers.

FairyFloss is almost all white.

They come from our wonderful friends Rohan & Jo !

We feel very lucky to have them.

Neah spent a relaxed Sunday afternoon in front of the fire drawing up a set of cattle yards for Grandads consideration !

The video is very quiet - hope you have loud speakers : )

Will have to post some pics one day of her Schleic (sp ? ) animal collection.

Depending on her whim, she may divide them up into farm animals, v's wild animals, or by continents of their origin, or perhaps by mammals v's reptiles etc.

Rilla my rilla

One afternoon last week Marilla mentioned to me rather seriously that

' Goodness ' , what an excellent word !
