FLOODING

.
For the 4th time in 10 years we have had a flood.
It takes some serious amount of rain to make the 
stream burst it's banks.
That a a high tide up the coast.


Luckily it never the enters the house, but does give
us 6 inches of water in the outbuildings.


If we see it coming up  the drive we have
about an hour to get everything off the deck.


The stream breaks it's banks in the fields down the lane
before it gets to the house.
Great dogs play area for a few hours.
No damage done, just a bit of cleaning up.

TOP CHICKENS


6 weeks we have had Joan and Yolko the ex battery hens. And now they run the roost. Their destruction of the grass is incredible. Having to move the run every 4 days to fresh grass. They have now been re-named "The Beaky Blinders"
