I would love to have my ewes lambing in a shed. I yard all my twinning ewes every night so I can easily seperate ewes with their lambs in the morning. Yards were wet so I put down straw. We had 18 mm more and the yards were still ok. Had another 16 mm yesterday and the yards are a swamp now. Decided not to yard all the sheep tonight as it’s to wet. Tomorrow I will push all the wet straw and sh!t out and put fresh straw down. It’s been a long time since we have had so much rain.

Mine lasted 2 days, but was never going to recover. The vet tried releasing pressure as she thought it was a hematoma, but it bled a lot and did not go down. I think the loss of blood finished it off, as it was some sort of tumor.

Is it just me, or has it flown by this year??
Seems very strange to have lambing fields empty and the ewes up next to the hill already.


Mind you, going round an hour ago was cracking in this weather

Is that Criffel and Dumfries I see? Beautiful views. Think how lucky we are compared to being in a tenement flat. My daughter has a garden which 'stretches' all of 6 feet to the pavement and only a passage from the kitchen door. Think Coronation Street.

Yes, that's right.

If you zoom in, right in the centre of the picture - the distant hills are Cumbria. The biggest one is Skiddaw, a good 40miles away.
