I’m currently battling the dreaded lurgy and went into Asda yesterday to stock up on Beechams cold tablets, which they’ve got on offer – only to discover that they’ve currently got a lot more on offer… They’re running a “Pet Health” campaign in association with the PDSA and as part of the campaign, they’ve put [...]

Running around
By the time I arrived at the farm this morning, I felt as though I’d already done a full day’s work! 6am – alarm goes off. Dogs get excited, jump arund bedroom, get cats excited so they join in. Can’t find phone, so alarm carries on long enough to wake B up. B has been [...]
