Old girl

I'm afraid I have some sad news to share, my old hen whose photo is on the blog, died in November after a long and bravely fought battle. We had her in the house in a cage and I had medicine sent from England for her, from a very nice lady who has a farm and a website called "Happy Chicks". Unfortuantly to no avail and she died in her peacefully in her sleep.

Penderff looked so beautiful, all the trees were covered in snow, the sheep and calves of course had never seen snow before so they were very funny, playing and digging down to the grass, the dogs of course thought it was great fun, poor Floss, all the snow stuck to her fur on the legs and tummy like big snowballs, we had to defrost her! I don't think I fancy a dip in the pool at the moment, could be a little cold! This picture was taken before the snow got really deep.

This is our driveway in the snow. We never expected to have snow like this in Brittany, what a pity we left our sledges in England. I couldn't leave the house for six days as the roads were so bad, Jeremy had to drive me to the shops in our 4x4, it was really exciting!
