What happens when you drop a tonne bale?

I am glad I made some feel better about their day!  Cake making is off the agenda as the hens have now given up laying.

Carl told me to stop moaning  - so I have and today has improved in some ways.  Dilly still will not have a bottle.  He wants one and has a couple of sips but then gives up.  I have changed the teat, thrown the milk out and got new, cleaned all bottles - still will not drink and he is cold despite his coat.  He is still lively though but does keep retreating to the filed shelter where he sits in solitary splendour - moaning, just like Bert does!

The weather has really turned today - I wore gloves for the first time for ages this morning.  And on the subject of arctic winds - Arctic Lad really is beginning to look ridiculous now - he is too big to drink standing up and so has to lie down.

So - despite the Dilly feeding worry - today has been better for me.  However, today was Sam's turn to have a REALLY bad day - his boss dropped a tonne bale on his truck (his most prized possession)!  I am waiting to view the damage!
