We have had another two weeks of fun. Easter came and went very quickly, luckily we still have lots of eggs to remind us. Peter, however, is making a good impression on eating them! Steve and Laura left us on Easter Monday and made it back to England in one piece.
This week we have cleared more of the driveway, let the chickens run free in the garden and mown lots of grass. We still need to mow it because although they are allowed out the chickens still prefer to stay in their new house!!
Our new arrival of a ride on lawn mower is most definitely useful. Once you have got used to the speed (!!!) it is great fun. Apparently I will be able to go in third gear by the end of the summer! Josh unfortunately needs to put on a few stone before he can drive it as he is still too light to make the seat connect!! The lawns are now looking very trim, now all we have to do is get rid of the nettles.
Riding lessons have continued and Rosie also now has a bridle to go with her saddle. Josh and Kirsty now have no excuse not to ride every day. Josh still does not bother with a saddle though, he prefers to go it alone with just the headcollar.
There is still plenty of work so those willing to lend a hand are still most welcome. Don't forget the housewarming at the end of May as well. Let us know if you are coming so we can plan the festivities.
Take care all.

Well you have certainly been very busy with your new lawn mower!
Kirsty and Josh will soon be experts on riding horses no doubt. Kirsty certainly looks the part in all her riding gear.
I am sure the Easter eggs will help towards Josh being able to drive the mower in the future.
Take care and I am sure you will all continue to have lots of fun.
Love to you all

I've had a lovely time catching up on the blogs - usually I get updates from Alex at the school gate! Thanks for the very exciting package ... I laughed when I opened it!
School is getting back to normal: Alison is back having had her baby, and we have advertised for a deputy head, so might be fully staffed one day!
No gossip I'm afraid, but lovely to have heard from you.
lots of love, Benta
Hi
Great to hear that everything is going well for you all.
You can count on the 4 of us for the housewarming.
Jan and Simon are on a weeks salmon fishing off the coast of Bornholm. They left yesterday and caught a 5½ kg salmon today so they are happy. They come home next Sun., the same day that I fly to Lebanon. Typical!
Looking forward to seeing you all very soon. Will let you know when we plan to arrive in the near future. Not sure yet if I will be starting from the UK or driving down with the boys!
Lots of love to you all,
Linda & Co.
