Every Sunday afternoon, I give the Shetland ponies who are on a major diet, a little bit more of their track to eat down.

I get a huge sense of achievement when I volunteer at Transition Turriefield (our local community vegetable growing project). Today I was planting.

Feed buckets, poo-picking and building electric fences.  That's my  morning.

Move along, please.  Nothing to see here.  Just a duck having an argument with a sheep.

The Shetland Bus was the nickname of a secret special operations group that made a permanent link between Mainland Shetland & German-occupied Norway from 1941 - 1945.

Took the Shetland ponies some water because I thought they couldn't be arsed to go and find it themselves. They had a long drink.

My eldest daughter is home for our Eurovision Fest - an annual tradition in our house.

Everyone is very pleased to see her.

Shetland ponies get their winter fur brushed out.  Everyone is now ready for Summer. Bring it on.

Life goes on after Eurovision. Moved the Shetland ponies' fence.
