Anyway, to this year's beautiful filly foal, FIFI. She was safely brought into the world under the watchful eye of Anna and Andrew as Netta and Wynn were actually away for a couple of nights!!!
She was born on May 22nd and our good veterinary neighbour Julia came to check every thing was ok. Now at ten weeks she has grown so much she has her head over the gate, and is very strong. Mare and foal were away at stud for five weeks so we are keeping our fingers crossed for next year. They went to Tim Breeze's grey chunky stallion nicknamed Fred!!

We did not go to the Flintshire Farmer's ploughing match this year as John had been really peculiar in his back in February and was a bit lame and Jewel did not look her best after this winter. As I write this now in August she looks fantastic for her age, she is 23, so we have had her 20 yrs.

We did not go to the Woodfest this year as the weather was atrocious.
