Week 12 – March 24th


Hooray! The warm weather has come back.New Mum says we have to make the most of it because it’s going to get cold again soon.

At least there don't seem to be many Huh-rabbits about. Here is a picture of one of them New Mum took last year, It was obviously deciding which plants to eat next.

Week 11 – March 17th


It’s still very cold but at least this week has been quite dry.

New Mum has spent a lot of time in the woods with us. She is putting all the branches and stuff that blew down last week into a big pile. She says the two Petes will cut them into logs when they come down again. We don’t know what New Mum does with the logs. She takes them down to the stable where she lives and we don’t see them any more. Her stable must be full of logs.

The stables that people live in don’t look the least bit like our stables. Next time we manage to get through the electric fence we’re going to see if we can sneak into New Mum’s stable to see what it’s like.

Woofer has been very noisy just lately. New Mum says something must be bothering her. She thinks Woofer can hear noises she can’t. We can hear strange rumbly noises from the other side of one of the woods. That might be the noise that New Mum can’t hear.

Week 10 – March 10th


Oh dear! Where has our lovely warm weather gone? This week has been getting colder and colder and we are having showers of very cold rain and some really chilly windy days. We are very glad that we haven’t lost our warm winter coats. The rain runs right off the tough long hair and stops the short fluffy warm hair underneath from getting wet. Even in the worst rain our skin is actually dry and warm.

Week 9 – March 3rd


The weather is still nice and warm.

We’ve been watching New Mum working in her garden. She spends a lot of time digging up some plants and throwing them in a big black bin thing and then putting other plants in the places she’s just cleared. It seems an awful lot of work for nothing. Why doesn’t she just leave the other plants there?

New Mum says our friend Tommy is having terribly wet weather and hasn’t been at all warm.

Bella and Poppy are being ridden by Zoe and Hollie at the weekends. During the week it is too dark when they come home from school. We think it would be much better if they didn’t go to school and spent more time with the ponies.
