So we went to stay at OH's cousin's farm. We've been together 15 years nearly and this was the first time he's taken me and the kids.
It was fabulous, the kids were pretty much feral for the whole eight days and the time flew by, I can't believe we're home already.
I got the help a little on with the cows but didn't do any milking as it meant being at the business end of the cows, and they are not polite or toilet trained!! Not nice! The kids took their turn, which I am very proud of, they just took it all in their stride. They also had 5 dogs around them. I thought this might encourage OH to let them have a dog of their own but he is now more convinced than ever that they will not be sensible with it. Bloody kids, this was their chance and they blew it! Still, he's changed his mind before we can only wait and see.
I would heartily recommend everyone spend some time on a farm, it has done me the world of good and it would appear we are expected back in a couple of months!!!
