February 10th and the first post of the year..

I know I have been blogging less and less, but this is the longest gap ever. The main reason being that Farmer and I headed south for January. We spent a month away leaving Treshnish in many capable hands: B and S who stayed in Shian and looked after the dogs, hens, bird feeders and checked in on the cottages for any storm damage (there was a little); RM who came over the hill every day to feed the sheep and redo the fence in the Haunn field; DG who was on standby to feed if RM couldn't do it and sort out any mechanical issues that arose (with vehicles or boilers) and SM who would come and do winter maintenance and storm repairs, which he did. To them all, we are really grateful as it was really good to be away. It was even better to get home though!

Here are a few photographs to fill the blog gap from our trip away. In 31 days we had many more wet days than dry ones - but we still had a great holiday!
