Busy, busy and some new friends for olive

Well I am a terrible blogger, and cant quite believe how long it's been since I have written. It was only when a friend asked if I was still writing I realised how long I have not posted.

I have also realised I can now do this from my smartphone, I am a technophobe and usually can't make things work but if this post goes well then I will have a new string to my bow.

Olive is still naughty and will grow ever more so as the nights are drawing in now winter is here, this year it has felt like winter has not gone as summer was awful. The few warm days were appreciated even more as they came so far apart. Feeding the flock has started, but only to get our new arrivals friendly with us. I picked up 6 new Hebridean a little while ago. 2 ewes and their 4 naughty little lambs. I will post some pics of them soon but they have been busy eating everything they shouldn't on the Croft (we have no willow left! !).

Last night was an amazing display of the northern lights, the best I have ever seen, and from my Croft. I am no photographer so have no pics of it but we have some amazing people here on the island who can, have a look on line and see......

Right, if this post posts I will know that not all technology is against me and blogging in future will be (less) difficult   .......
