This is a new one for me. The most ridiculous pair of twins you ever did see, and a rather wonky lamb. #farming #farmlife #crofting

This remains, without doubt, the best sign I have ever seen.

Yesterday's calf has finally found his feet!

Thought I'd share some of my productivity tips. If they work for you that's all the thanks I need... 😂

Apparently, this is my "cow voice" 🤣

Good morning. Here's a freshly laid calf to brighten your day.

Never mind the terrible world, look at my tiny sheep! 🤣

A little timeline cleanse.

Good job I don't take myself too seriously. There's always a curve ball on the croft.

It's a grim world out there, but my most recent review of an Amazon purchase has been published, so there's that.

Counting this as a win. After teaching the 5 Ronnies to eat seaweed, I let them loose on a wee bit of the croft with access to the shore. Found them a day later feasting exactly where I wanted them to be, so I rewarded them with a sprinkling of nuts. Here's hoping they stay there! #northronaldsay

This is the kind of feedback I welcome on a Wednesday morning.

Yesterday's family photo is leaving a bit to be desired.

That was not how I planned to spend yesterday evening. The cat was of no earthly use.

Feeling extremely smug because I've started the process of sorting out my shed. It had gone utterly feral. I started by getting the dinghy out of the way. It can't trip me up from up there!

I was just setting the fire and read the worst headline I've seen in a very long time.

Wisp's girlfriend is staying. She's much more of a morning dog 🤣

The hens are hellish for bullying the ducks, so this is how they get fed 🤣

My offering of cod fishcake has been deemed unacceptable.

I angered him today. Pray for me.

As long as it's not geography they're teaching... Spot the mistake 🙈

All hail our new overlord.

The inside of my porch is a pretty close representation of the inside of my head. But a damn sight tidier.

She's gorgeous and she knows it. And I'm wrapped right round her fluffy little finger.

Taxi for a Ronnie? Turns out they go under fences the dog can't manage... #northronaldsaysheep

The tea has landed... Help me get rid of it again at tireetea.co.uk 🤣🤣

And the man himself? He's delighted but he'll be furious about this thread. 🤣

After a few incidents that would make a health and safety officer's hair curl, the cage was at last moored safely in Ruaig. What happens next is an open question but I'll be sure to let you know!

Thankfully JP innocently walked in as the phone calls flew. His boat was ready to launch complete with an engine. And so that's how I found myself at sea yesterday when I was supposed to be doing the VAT.

Monday dawned and the weather was good. The plan was to float it out of the harbour and round to a wee harbour in Ruaig, near Skippy's house. A neighbour offered their boat, and they set sail.
