Hi Jean. That was a sad end to 2009 for you.

Thanks for the reminder about the mineral licks ours are almost finished their last one. Going to brave the snow tomorrow and go and get one.

Wonder if Richard would let me borrow the tractor to go in?! Think I would feel safer on that than in a car!

All the best
Caroline

Oh Jean what a horrible time you are having.

Fingers crossed for your dog, if it was my collie I would be just as worried.

Dear Jean,
I am so sorry to hear of the hard time you are having. You must have had your share of bad luck for the next year.
Your daughter must be so upset.
I can't do anything to help, but you are in my thoughts.

So sorry, Jean. You must be feeling really down, especially at this dark, dreary time of year. It is hard to lift your spirits. Roll on the spring and some sunshine!

Dear Jean,

so sorry to hear about your tough time. I have a cow called Meggie the Moo, after my lovely little dog Meggie who lost her fight with cancer.
I was feeling down a couple of days ago, but got a text off a friend, saying she would win the lottery, buy a couple of farms abroad for our families, next to a chocolate factory! That managed to bring a smile to my face!
