Saturday, April 18, 2015. Well today is officially my due date, but so far our baby isn’t ready to come into the world! With the help of Nigel we have been and collected our first two pigs of the year. Oxford Sandy and Black cross Pietrain. Something a bit different but nice and local in South Woodham Ferrers. Nigel has given me a good fast bumpy ride in his landrover which he hopes will help me along my way. I’m not sure on that one, I think the baby will arrive when its ready!

Tales from the Sheep Shed: Caption Needed
http://talesfromthesheepshed.blogspot.com/2012/09/caption-needed.html
Tales from the Sheep Shed. Monday, 24 September 2012. I took this picture at the Weald and Downland Museum Rare Breed Show. Instead of traditional hay nets the sheep had these things that look like shopping bags. This picture demands a caption but can I think of one? Maybe you can help. Can you suggest a caption? Weald and Downland Museum. 24 September 2012 at 12:37. I say Mabel, did you pack the sun cream? Great picture, love to read about you in Yarnmaker and look forward to more on your blogs. How to ...

Tales from the Sheep Shed. Wednesday, 26 September 2012. New Addition to the Website. I'm pleased to announce there is a new addition to the website. My lovely web developer, Simon at Aflier.com. Has made a vague idea I had into reality. I am always interested in the life of my products after they have been sold and often customers get in touch to share pictures of what they have made. I wanted a place on the website where these imaginative and stunning projects could be displayed. Page of the website.

Tales from the Sheep Shed: August 2012
http://talesfromthesheepshed.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Tales from the Sheep Shed. Friday, 31 August 2012. Last Sunday I was sitting in the middle of the street in central Tunbridge Wells spinning, much to the curiosity of the general public. No, I hadn't gone completely mad, I was taking part in Tunbridge Wells Festival. This festival is a new event started by Stephen Mason, a local businessman and Chief Executive of Trinity Theatre in Tunbridge Wells. Profits go to a number of local charities, notably Hospice in the Weald. Is that a spinning jenny? I haven'...
