In the beginning

Life is good. About as good as it gets (apart from the fact that I've done my back in again). Spring in the country is always a great time, and the arrival of the lambs at the weekend, combined with great weather and 5 days off work just made things even better.
We've had our chickens for a month or so now, and they are becoming part of the furniture - 3 eggs a day, every day, and their presence wandering about in the garden is becoming the norm.
Sales of our homemade jam are picking up again after the winter, and eggs are flying off the stall quicker than we can get them - happy days!
We've got planning permission to extend now, and are waiting for building regs to come through. I've started clearing the hedge at the front in preparation for our new parking area - that was how I did by back!
It seems as though we'll be needing a Land Rover sooner rather than later, so the long search for the right car at the right price starts here - it looks like being a busy (and expensive) few months.....
