| Dorothy and her ten babies |
We drove straight from Devon back to the farm in Cumbria to take care of things while Louise and Stephen went down to Suffolk to prepare for the wedding of Lou's daughter.
To our utter delight, Dorothy had recently given birth to ten gorgeous squeeling bundles of delight.

We also took on the challenge of cleaning out the spare/storage/dog's room and building some shelving to keep things in order.
The garden was in full swing also which kept James busy shelling and freezing peas ... with a little bit of help from his 'friend' ;-)
Poppy enjoyed sunning herself wherever she could find a spot of sun.
 |
| Just look at that beautiful view! |
Jeeves and Wooster enjoyed their usual cuddles.
And there were plenty of shenanigans left over for Reg and Poppy.

Clare got bitten by a horsefly whilst poo picking the horse field and got cellulitis! A heavy course of antibiotics soon sorted it out but we were surprised at how aggressively fast the swelling and infection grew.
We handed over to the next house sitter so that we could make it down to the wedding ourselves.

From here, we went straight to Sizewell to sit Gail for Jenny for a few short days. Jenny is one of our repeat clients and was in between houses, staying in a self contained unit right on the beach .... which suited us down to the ground for obvious reasons.

Jenny's landlady had recently injured herself and was finding it difficult to walk her own wee dog, Tigger. We were more than happy to oblige and Gail enjoyed his company too.

There are definite benefits to repeat sits. One of them is that we already know the area which makes walking the dog/s so much easier.
