We have a cat. Well, sort of. It arrived a few days ago, then disappeared, was there again this morning and has disappeared again. Weirdo.

Yesterday we bought some chicks to fatten up. 1.80 euros each. Bargain.


 This was Banna after Viki took him for a big ride. Sweaty


Always got his nose in some food, our Banna


This is being used to feed and water the new chicks while they are small. With another tray on top it stops predators getting to them (I hope). They were in the spitaki with the cat all night last night and survived that, so I suppose it must work. And no, I didn't know the cat was there.


Put a bit of spinach, some lettuce, and some celery in to keep the onions and spuds company. Need to look at the fencing around the animal feed crop and irrigation before it starts sprouting. We think a spray will do the job  there, but I need a drip irrigation system on the food for us.

Oh, and the pump for the river water has decided not to work.

Still 22 C today. Spring has sprung.
