Comments are welcome. Please scroll to the bottom for the latest news. 09/04/2010 21:00 Just put the hens away. Peaceful night and [...]  At long last, after a long hard winter, the lambing season is upon us. It’s a time of year that brings so much joy and happiness, and yet can be heartbreaking at the same time. A few weeks ago we had a false start with still born twins, but as they say, “A bad start, [...]  Wow. Got up this morning, late. Really slept well after the last few sleepless nights. What do I find? All UK airports closed due volcanic ash!. I though I’d make this post as it has info that probably wont make it to the news programs.

I have come up with a solution that automaticaly detects which device visitors are using, and then deliver my content in the most appropriate way. Not all of the pages are [...]  Enter The Dragons Den, be oh so afraid. I found this gem in Duncan Bannatynes twitterpics. The newspaper headline says it all. Made me smile.
