ITS RAINING!!!

ok, generally i dont have much time to update hambrooks blog, but today is reallllly hammering down with rain and im not working, so heres an update on progress so far:

Since moving in, the brambles have been cut down, the fencing that needed felling, has been felled, we have THE biggest bonfire to set light to when we have a dry week. The 2 ponies, Di and Oli were moved in and did a super job of ground clearence and fertilisation. The caravan/farm office is in place, washed and is now being decorated by super designer Julia DeKlerk, so that'll be proper swanky when done, my dad is making me a mini woodburner to go in it to, so it'll be nice and cozy!
 The new fence posts arrived, from the local saw mill, and will be put up in a weeks time by Mark and his tractor. And we're waiting on a discount day at the local farming store to get the stockmesh cheap!
 Two new arrivals onsite are Norman and George the shetland ponies, straight off the New Forest, they arent the tamest of creatures, but are getting there slowly with Jennifers attention.
All the field shelters are flooded this morning, the ground just cant take anymore water, the road is a river and the ditches either side of the field are overflowing, so all ponies onsite are wet, but dont seem to care much!
