My late Father was very Catholic so Easter Sunday was always an important day for our family, even though I’m not a practicing Catholic we still treat it a bit like Christmas Day, make sure we have a nice lunch and invite family.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
We gave everyone far too much!

Mrs P would have done. He's an abandoned twin. He was the firstborn of the pair but the mother ignored him, didn't lick him clean, etc. Our friends who keep these sheep are bottle feeding him.
The breed is Soay and they usually have a single lamb. It's not unusual for one of a pair to be rejected.

Six miles. My longest walk since the RTC by some distance. My feet are very tired but the knee held up very well. No discomfort and no swelling. I was aware of it but never uncomfortable. Surprised and pleased by this.

At times it seems there's something passed down to the second one, that see's it dying despite the best attempts at keeping it alive.
Well that was a day and a half. Managed to get patio doors sorted but boy what a job. Hinges needed replacing as inevitably the screws were solid. Doors weigh a ton so roped in eldest daughter to assist. Much faffing and cursing and got it done.
Then mowed our frankly enormous lawn so multiple trips to tip needed to take cuttings. Filled up 8 big builders bags!
Just finished so go into house and the wife says "do you want the bad news". Shower in ensuite leaking and water coming through ceiling.
Marvellous....
