young ethan.

There was an awful acident this week early morning before i was to set off for the woodfest. Ethan the big greyhound in the middle had a collision with one of the others while running around and the impact broke his neck, there was nothing that could be done and he had to be put to sleep

One day i'll write a cheery blog but life just seems to be doleing out dross for me at the moment.

Dear heavens above it's ages since i blogged!!

It's really hard isn't it when you've not done it for a while just how hard it is to get going.

.

We have been really busy i'm working most days [i still have to turn in even if there are no customers in town]..

Last week i went to collect some ebay buys From Blackpool..

A Mangle and a big agricultural scale etcetcetc. I'm new to towing so it was quite an adventure thank gawd i didn't need to reverse.

We did the tourist bit ate at a "greasy jo's" looked around the swag shops, and paid a visit to the "rock shop" . It very nearly made me blush, the shapes rock comes in these days!

It's the "Woodfest" in 2 weeks and i'm having an implement stall as well as clothes hopefully it will boost my takings . If not they will look good in the garden.

He had us fooled .

April 1st Well he fooled us into thinking he was much better, then sneaked off to the place with no fences the minute we turned our backs. TTFN monty i'm sure you'll be waiting at the pearly gates, Which of course you will be sagging in the middle like all ours. xx

When he first arrived i thought "what the hell have i done". At 4 monthes he was all bottom lip and back legs and no evidence of a single brain cell!

As the years passed we learnt this wasn't the case at all, his dopey appearance hid the cunning of a fox and a brain like einstein and a sense of humour [yes thats right ] and i was the butt of most of his jokes..

There wasn't a field or stable which would hold him and electic fences pah bring 'em on .

I've got loads of bent posts and i've watched him albeit without him knowing place his hoof carefully at the bottom of the plastic pole and bend it to the ground so the wire is grounded then then he'd pick up his skirts [if he wore them] and daintly step over...

Also this january when all was frozen including the new pond, i went out to check him and his footprints led across the ice to a monty shaped hole in the middle !!!! I was alone and frantic thinking he was under the ice i couldn't see him so i ran all around the fields, crying and calling his name it's not easy finding a black and white horse when everything is monochrome he didnt reply because he was hiding behind a tree sniggering into his tash!!! Arrgghhhhhhhh he's been a pain and cost me a fortune but boy will we miss him .

WINNIE THE POO ??

I wasn't going to blog then i looked at my side bar and noticed a winnie the poo?? i don't remember seeing him there under followers before ? I clicked and it was Woozle it made me smile and think how lucky we all are .. ps was she always winnie ?? i thought she was a church steeple or something is she playing tricks I wouldn't be surprised. xxx

Yikes I was supposed to invent something in november!!! thanks Tatty..

Now what would it be ? A machine that put all the commas, dashes and full stops in the right places would be handy!

I Think i'd like to invent a magic pen and paper so what you drew came to be..

Imagine i could draw my house finished all built and lived in , and drawn Monty in his field and there he'd be as good as gold, i could sit on a mountain and draw my house TIDY imagine and the pots washed. I could draw sick people well and bad folk behind bars..

The list goes on and on and on and on..

It's full now !!

But we'll be waiting for some fine weather before we landscape..

Taking stock !

It's been absolutly ages since i've felt the urge to blog, and even now with lots to tell i can't quite find the words.

We have closed the Holyhead shop and re-opened in LLanrwst , it's really nice to be back there and S and i swap once a week {she does denbigh} and i work in this lovely little shop, it's more like a party actualy i ran it for 6years before i leased it out in 96 and made a heap of good friends who are taking it in turns to take me to lunch {so much for the stone i lost}...

Denbigh is doing well and it was the plum fest last week so trade was up. I also much to my surprise won the window competition !! some one had sneakily entered me into it.

Also if anyone fancies a daft night out that crap medium {about 3 blogs down} is coming back to the town hall on the 11th nov, i'm going Berludy £5 a ticket now though...

Did you hear about the machette attack we had on the caravan, well it's not resolved , the police finally went around to the guys house 11 days after the incident !!!!! What hope hey!!Meanwhile i'm not sleeping all the stories that have come back to me concerning the chap are gross for example "Lighting a live sheep" "shooting a dog and not quite finishing it off so dragging it around behind its{i'll leave the mistake} car until it died as you would !!!!!!!!!!!! .

Well thats the scum who is now in my radar !!

Meanwhile after 20yrs security as become important we have never had any, but now everythings locked and cameras are being fitted..I'll quietly Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrowl and bide my time.
