Keeping pigs


In the morning, time is limited, so to ensure all the aniamls at the yard are fed, watered, checked and tidied we spilt the chores. This year the care of the pigs appears to have fallen a
lmost entirely to my husband. Looking through some old photos this weekend it seems he is just following in the family tradition.
