Day Two

Quiet day today. Made an effort to get our weary bones into action and walked down to get the papers (we have three papers delivered Wednesdays). Day was warm and cattle grazing green pasture - things look pretty good. Lots and lots of ‘phone calls - knee replacement cancelled and John’s appointment with the surgeon is to be via telephone. It seems with email and the telephone we can cover most things from home. Expecting rain tomorrow so John did lots of road and drainage work.
Checked on two cows injured last week when neighbour’s bull flattened the boundary fence to get in here. He kicked the older cow whilst I was there and seems to have done the same to a lovely little heifer. Both had anti-inflammatories and (just in case) antibiotics but neither have improved in five days. May have to cut our losses and get the butcher in.Read more
