Soo sorry for the rather tumble-weed-y appearance of the blog at the moment.
Our phone/internet company are being extremely rubbish and unhelpful and can't get our internet sorted any earlier than tomorrow (nearly a month after I rang to say we'd moved) so I have been traipsing backwards and forwards to cafes in town to use free wifi - very irritating, especially since my laptop is getting rather sad and on-it's-last-legs-y and half the time I get into town it decides it doesn't fancy it and gives out on me. Also I had a rather nice surprise return-of-husband this week which used up all my spare fighting-with-technology time...shucks. Hopefully all will be sorted and working soon!
On a positive, at least I haven't been blown away by all this mad wind. The chickens nearly were, I had to go out late last night and move their house to the other end of the garden in a more sheltered spot as I was worried it might get blown over and they would be blown halfway to America. I had already taken Edward back to his ship so had to take on the task alone, I donned coat and wellies, strapped a hat to my head with a length of elastic and set out to fight the elements. It's quite a heavy little house and it was raining quite hard and the chickens made a lot of what-the-heckers-is-going-on noises - hilarious to anyone watching I'm sure, but something of a nightmare at the time... I struggled down the garden being buffeted by the ever strengthening wind and lashed by what felt like entire buckets of water being hurled at me from all angles. Got there in the end and went back in feeling rather exhilarated if a bit wet, to snuggle under a blanket in front of a film. The chickens peered out this morning and decided they'd rather stay inside today...I don't blame them
