Who's a Pretty Boy Then?
This is the letter-opener that I've been telling you all about! We bought this little fella at an antiques fair a couple of weeks ago with the Christmas money Lucy's granddad gave us (Thanks Michael). It's around 90 years-old! The lady who sold it, told us that we need to name him... So if you've got any suggestions, please leave a…
Sunday Walks
We will get around to finishing our Christmas & New Year recap, we've written-up half of part 2 so far, so we should finish it off sometime this week! In the meantime, we'd like to show off some photos we've been taking whilst on our Sunday walks. The week-before-last, we took Danny, Alex and Jacob out for a walk around the fields of Claverham - which was nice and muddy! Then today, Emily, James and Thomas…
Barry from EastEnders
Early Thursday evening, James asked me if I was looking after him on Friday night because his Mum & Dad were going to the theatre. To which I replied, "Erm... You'll have to check with Aunty Lucy." A little later, Lucy informs me that we are also going to the theatre and the tickets have been booked! "Oh," I say, "What are we going to see?" At this point I start to get scared,…

All of Lucy's cousins (and husbands + kids) were there,…
Merry Christmas Everyone
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas, lots of love (and hugs) from all of us at The Farm! We're off down The Rising Sun (aka "the local" ) tonight for some Christmas Eve shenanigans... Wish me luck! Can you guess what I want for Christmas? (yep, you guessed it... no hangover!) ;-) (yeah right! - Lucy) UPDATE: (01:07am) I survived... not very sober, but still able to type... Merry Christmas one and all... nighty…
A Local Pub (for Local People)
What an eventful weekend it has been! We had a quiet night at the local pub, (which ended in drunken stupidness), and we went to Anita's Christening, (which also ended in drunken stupidness) - are you starting to notice a theme building here? Early Friday evening, little Thomas decided that we were all going down to the pub! (Thomas is only 3 years-old by the way). So we all went down to the local -…
