Lambing and Easter Holiday Time

Hi everyone - thought i'd give a little insight into the world of Animate Animal Minding!March was lambing time once again, so i spent my nights in a lambing shed, keeping watch over the unpredictable creatures we call sheep! Once that was finished, Easter weekend was upon us, meaning holiday time and time to look after houses and dogs, stables and horses, huts and hens, all over the dale!This is really when my year starts. The beginning of the year is always fairly quiet, giving me chance to catch up on various admin and bits and pieces, but then once lambing time starts, it seems to continue til, well, about November!I'm in the process of updating my website, so hopefully that will be launched soon. There's a link to a local animal store on there, a page with useful links and numbers, news and information and a hopefully regular blog spot!Finally, i'll be sponsoring the pet show at Barnard Castle Meet over Whit weekend in May, so if you're there, come and have a chat!Bye for now!Leanne.
