Food and animal lover. Eat both. Sea swimmer, outdoorsy, opinionated, always questioning.
Not too shabby to have time for a quick dip in the middle of your working day #booleybay

Pizza made with a 30 hour biga in a very hot oven on a pizza stone. Stone heated for 45 mins. Took about 10 minutes to cook.

Last few loaves of sourdough wouldn't rise at all and had a really sour taste when baked. Starter seemed active so was confused. Got another starter from my daughter and voila. Hot cross buns for swimmers on beach later 😋

She disappeared on Tuesday last. I'm heartbroken and miss her so much.

Coldest water (7.7°C) I've ever experienced but the laughs after make it worthwhile

You can shove your heat pumps where the sun don't shine. At this time of year and during storms and power cuts, a stove is vital. Heats the whole house despite size and I can cook on it and boil a kettle.

My 3 year old grandson riding 11hh Milly belong to neighbour who won't sell her but will lend her to me. Daughter asked how much she's worth. I said thousands because there are so few small ponies without an ounce of badness, and she is one. Has never ever done anything to any small child.

Hard to believe she chased the cats when I first got her. Lexi the rescue Shepweiler and Coconutter.

Coming to the end of this year's tomatoes now. Not too shabby for 6th December!
Even though ripened in house surprisingly flavourful and a lovely acidity. So much nicer than the watery shop bought offerings.

I wrote a blog a few years ago www.uppedstickswithpigs.com. a few women I swim with discovered it and are reading it. They said I should turn it into a book. Wish it was that easy!

Documenting a move from one end of the country to another with pigs, poultry, cats and dogs in tow.

Very brief visit to Engerland for my grandsons third birthday. Loved the trip to Blackpool for the illuminations and to see the iconic tower.

Seem to have got a few followers here recently after a deafening silence for over a year. So here's some birds resting on a large sow 😆

Forgot about this? Don't think it's going to rival Twatter/X after all??
