Ok, so it's oficially 2011 now. About mid day on day one. Going to be 38 degrees today, so it's early chores, then sit inside in the cool 'till late arvo. Then start afternoon chores. There's a slight westerly blowing that's taking the edge off it. Slightly.
We had a bunny breakout yesterday. I accidentally left the back of one kindling box unlatched and about 5 rabbit kittens escaped. Re captured 4, and I'll get the other one soon. Lillys piglets are due to start going to new homes as of monday. It's a joy to watch them grow and develop, play and just be, well, piglets. She has such healthy litters. We're hoping for a saddleback boar to come and visit this month, for our two gilts. Still have to make arrangements for that. Picked up a load of gyprock yesterday to start lining the inside of the accommodation. It will certainly make a change, and exclude some nasty mosquitoes. I hope to collect an old water tank in the coming days to use as a grain silo. Also a used retail ice chest that will be converted to a coolroom for our animal processing. enough for now, there's shit to be done....
