Challenge Complete!!, we sold most of our land and Farm House! Enabling us to concentrate on Purl Design LLP - Sustainable Architecture and allow our guests to enjoy the peaceful retreat here at The Mill Cottages in either of our one bed cottages, along with our resident pets, ponies, chickens, goats, cats and dogs! We have spent the last year renovating the 400 year old mill for us to live in, completed late 2012 and love every minute!!!... We are looking forward to another successful year.

COLD SNAP STILL HERE
Its freezing here at the moment, I love the snow but the frozen water is driving us nuts, we have to deliver water to the animals 3 or 4 times a day. Just as you finish one round of breaking ice and hiking down with water you are off again, not going to get anything done at this rate. 4 of our little kune kunes went to their new homes today, 2 went to Danni and Mark the other 2 to the Pub in St.Stephens! (as pets I hasten to add!)..The others aren't able to be collected yet as their new owners are snowed in!...Its going to be weird without them. Pixie will be due end of Feb but I dont think she will have a big litter, Kune Kunes usually have small litters. Duke is stabled again now too, He is really struggling in this cold weather. The ground is so hard for his feet, he hates being shut in but I cant bear to watch him suffer on the hard ground. He is all tucked up and see how he is tomorrow. I just hope he can get through this bit and the Spring will bring softer ground, then he might pick up again. Oh and Petes mum has broken her knee cap by slipping on the ice!Get well soon Pam!..... All the Golf is cancelled, Pete and Steve weren't supposed to be here today but Burhill comp was all cancelled...Wonder how much longer it will be a nightmare.
