Ewe #224 – First Lambs For 2016

After a certain amount of mucking about I was able to log in to Karola’s UK bank and pay off her credit card. This included switching from Anna’s mobile number to mine as the authorised mobile in order that the two-stage authentication could work without involving Anna in forwarding TXT messages for every transaction.

Also this morning I was able to get prices for the seed needed to crete the lucerne paddock from Farmlands and from PGG Wrightsons. As hoped it turned out that the seed merchant chosen by Bob Masters was very much in line with the other vendors. We expect to go ahead with the September creation of the lucerne crop in the One Acre paddock.

Karola went round the sheep and reported that ewe #224 had had twins overnight, two little ewe lambs.

All of us went to Flaxmere to New World for food and to the Pharmacy.

I went out to start the Landrover and it stuttered and gave up. Called the AA but they couldn’t fix it and it has to be towed to our garage – Tamatea Motors – tomorrow, 10:00am.
