I treated myself to some more Tamworth pigs at Westmorland show yesterday

Gloria is looking forward to the Westmoreland show tomorrow but sadly Lillian can't go due to a bad leg ☹️

Can you guess what we'll be doing later today?

Hattie has her new calf!

A great looking bull calf at about 9am this morning and hopefully he'll be up on his feet in no time
