THEY HAVE ARRIVED!!!!


After days and days and what seemed like weeks, the piglets have arrived...Yes Pixie has in fact given birth to eight piglets. We have been hourly checking her for what seems like forever...and do you know what.....On Sunday Pete was with Steven at a Cornwall U18 golf match (which Steven won so well done Steve and Cornwall U18 also won as a team so congrats everyone)....anyway, off they went to do there thing leaving me home to do all the jobs!!!! I thought I would nip out to see a friend off mine in between pig checks as Pixie didn't look any different, I dropped in Dots present and came back to see Laura. I said I would just go and check on Pixie and told her I bet she wouldn't have time for a shower as I would be ringing her for a hand with the birth...only kidding....so when I got down to the pig sty I couldn't believe my eyes she had already started and nearly finished giving birth, I rang Laura who didn't believe me at first and then came rushing down to see what was going on. It looked like they were all fit and healthy and whilst sitting with her I texted and phoned everyone that was asking after her for such a long time to say it had finally happened Pixie has delivered her first brood.
