Our sheepskins will soon be available from the Secret Garden store in Fiskars.

It was a cold blustery day so we didn't do much.  Peter bought a new piece of equipment: a trailer for the tractor.

It's second hand or maybe third or fourth or even more since it would have been made in the 1960s by Nummi, a local company now owned by Wipro Engineering (a multinational hydraulics company). Anyway, it's a perfect match for our tractor (also from the early 60s).  It has been recently renovated with much TLC: new tyres, new boards and new paint.  A happy bunny.  Now we just need another shed for storing it... 

We had a call from the farm in Ostrobothnia today and some good news:  there will be enough lambs for us and even a couple of older sheep(over a year old) and even a couple of "old ladies".  So now we are getting excited again and starting to plan for their arrival.  Time to start hammering in the fence posts again and checking the fence and moving the sheep shed back into the field.  Excellent!
