Hello!!

We moved into The Lodge a year ago and have had many adventures since then!! I keep friends and family entertained with stories of semi rural life (lots of space, no neighbours and we don't have a Tesco on our doorstep!!) We share our home with 3 crazy cats (George, Henry and Gracie) and our hens (Ethel, Fluffy and Lulu). Our dream is to become as self sufficient as possible, save money and help the environment that little bit!! I hope that this blog entertains and inspires!!

Return to The Lodge!!!

Life at The Lodge returns!! Its been a few months. I must admit that with all that has been going on around here, stag/hen dos, holidays and weddings and the planning that it has all involved I totally forgot my password etc and have been unable to access the blog!!! :S
Anyway some form of normality has returned this week. We are back after the most amazing time away (more of that later I'm sure) and are now a Mr and Mrs!!!!
I say some form of normality, but not quite!! Fluffy, Ethel and Lulu are still on their hols, living it up in a fancy hen house!! We are also minus one cat, who is 'stealthing' around the countryside somewhere after point blank refusing to go to the cattery!! Thank you to the various friends for staying and popping round to feed him. Payment included onions and beetroot from the garden!
Pleased to announce that the timed watering system worked a treat and the toms, sweetcorn and chillis are looking good!!
Anyway must get on, bit more planning this week for the BIG party. A last minute venue cancellation and a overly worried landlady  put paid to our plans for a rural/local theme, but it has all worked out. After marrying in the beautiful Thailand we just cannot wait to see all our family and friends this weekend.
