New arrivals
Yesterday we popped up to Crieff to pick up this year's weaners - 3 8-week old Tamworth boars. Everything went very smoothly, they have settled in very quickly and found their ark within an hour of arrival. (They like the ark so much they stayed in it until nearly midday today!)
We introduced the dogs to them and then left them to their own devices. Tess will be obsessed with them for a month or two, Meg is indifferent.
We made a little video of the day for your enjoyment.

can you please remind Tess she is meant to have a sore leg and not leap over fences!! she'll listen to every word of course.
Oh, no - names are the way to ruin! Tess's op has given her a new lease of life! She just loves them.

how delightful that you've added video! I hadn't checked your diary in quite a while, thanks for sharing your experiences. in an earlier vid, you've got potatoes in a pot, have you done them in tires? because I am downtown Toronto (Canada), thinking that this might be a way to deal with available - limited - space!
