After being away for near on 6 days we arrived home just before 5pm yesterday. First thing I did was go check on the chickens and I am glad to say that they are all still there and looking none the worse for being fed and watered by someone other than me. Thankyou to T&J and L for coming out and looking after things for me while I was away.
The gardens also look like they have been well looked after and so far I can't find anything dead or missing. Maybe I should get someone else to do the gardens more often!
The grass must have loved my being away as it is about 8inches longer than when we left so getting that back down will be my main job for the next few days. We are expecting some warm weather here over the next few days so I will need to get started early before it warms up too much but everything will need more mulch as well and that is also a big job for me.
So...I need to finish raking out the chookpens, mow grass and throw the fresh clippings in to the chooks, put the old clippings from pens on the gardens...All that, and updating my other blog, should keep me off the streets for awhile.
Coffees finished so better get started. Afterall, it's already after 5.

We had to do that with our roosters too, it was bedlam with 5 of them amongst the chooks, especially really early in the morning. Nice and peaceful out in the pen now.
