A little local planting around a street sign in the village.

Pretty, clever and so what is going on around here at the moment with spring about to spring.  What we can’t bring you is the delicate, hesitant, bewildered cry of new lambs which are now appearing in the fields in the valley.  Not many, but they will be followed by more as we “head off into the month” (BBC weatherperson speak – ugh!).

Some farmers are hoping to cash in on early lambs for Easter – some scepticism here from others who claim that the cost of supplements outweighs getting ahead of the market prices. “Our” lambs in the surrounding fields aren’t due to appear for another month or so yet – then we can clearly bring you their “bleatings from Wales”!
