I will let you know what we decide on pip. It's something I would like as well, but maybe will have to wait till I retire too.

Lovely close up Pip and nice to see more and more of them now as they used to be quiet rare when i was a youngster

What a shame Jen. I think I would put my money on the deer too. Those beautiful bandits put their gorgeous lips on anything they can find. I had them marauding in my last garden and much heartache and expense they caused me until I accepted reality and fenced them out. It was an expensive and...

re the rabbits - have been digging up bindwood and thistles, maybe I'd better keep them! I had noticed that they leave the daffs alone but of course they have long finished. Foxgloves are looking good though, haven't got any lupins so I'll try those. Like you Sheal I have lost any number of...

What a difference a day makes ! Thanks for the videos Capney.

Hi been doing this already , my baby one that was under weight last Autumn, I even went out and bought scales to weigh it LOL ££ fed it on dog food into late November , then didnt see it again until 1st week of April so to my amazement it survived , and each one has its own particular colour...
