What a horrid week!

Rather predictably when I agree to do two extra days at work something will always go wrong but this week it happened in spades.

We have had a cria with colic, then his mum has an oedematous cornea and just to top it off we lose one of our alpacas overnight - Basil who we had shown last year who had also this year recovered from a broken leg. Just to make sure the dogs weren't left out Apple decided she had strained something and couldn't walk on Tuesday.

I am glad to report that the cria seems fine, the eye is stable and Apple has made a miraculous full recovery (typical wire).

On a more cheerful note here are some photos of our lovelys from this year.

Sorry to hear about Basil, it must be bloody awful.
Keep your chins up.
Saw Milo the day before yesterday what a cracker!
