Leaving These Here

Here are a few films that Daisy found on her phone the other day.

A freshly shorn Lambie eating biscuits (lovely sounds of munching)

Lambie in the kitchen (cough) eating toast and marmite.  He’s very partial.

Lambie, Bert and Ster when they were young playing in the school.

More playing.  I think this must’ve been in the spring/summer after Bert came back from his life in the hill (where he nearly died).  His coat is not as good as the others but they are all still young because Ster’s horns are very little. So sweet.

Everyone a little older playing outside (and that’s BeAnne barking in the background which I find very triggering – sniff).

And lastly, my very favourite film of best buddies (then) Albie and Newt having a mad playing session outside the house.  I don’t think I’ve ever seen this film.  They both sit down if they’re not winning, which I love (and no one is ever hurt).

Lunch in Town

To town today because it was Floss’ birthday. We went out for lunch and then did a spot of shopping (mostly food for supper, even though we felt very full).

Lerwick was deserted.  The cruise ship season has finished now.

(though, there were a few boats in probably sheltering from the current strong winds).

Floss and I mooched around and checked the field at Jamieson’s Knitwear for stock levels.

When we eventually wended our way home, I went back outside to feed the ducks/hens their tea and get the sheep home for the night.

The ponies came careering up because I had shouted for the sheep.  I could that they were in a very silly mood.

The sheep also came careering out of that field because they hate the ponies, which is not a bad thing because they do tend to dawdle if they possibly can.

Naw, Lambie – the King of dawdlers.  He owns it.

And even Dahlia came home – because I had shouted that there was a fresh packet of ginger biccies waiting.  She does love a biccie.
