Country Matters

This week I am house-sitting for Stuart and Gabrielle, professional permaculturalists, in La Haute Houssais, Brittany, a hamlet so small it is easy to drive straight through and never notice it in your rear view mirror.

While here, I am also chicken-sitting:



 Sheep-sitting:

Rabbit-sitting:

















And cat-sitting:

I feel I can now justifiably call myself a man of the soil.

That's a lot of responsibility you've got there...... good luck to you and all the animals.

Managerie Manor? Hope you are enjoying it and that all the animals survive (-:

Thank you once more, from the hearts of our bottoms, for looking after our house and animals while we're away. See you Saturday afternoon !

Dr. Doolittle maybe, but you're not a fully fledged man of the soil 'till you've got your hands dirty surely! Nice work though David and we'll see you on Saturday night G x
