At the present moment (Thursday, sun shining, blue sky), the intention is to go ahead with the Birdsong for Beginners event on Saturday.

This plan may change, however. If you are thinking of coming, please do phone ahead to check it's still on - 01691 870278.

Drifting on minor roads is still causing problems in the area, and things have been very difficult on the farm, with lambing just getting under way. A testing time to be a shepherd. 

...it snows again, which apparently may happen this week. The ploughs have been through and the roadsides are piled high, so you can get to us for your emergency supplies of feeder seed, suet cake and peanuts.

But never mind all that - I can get out of my house again!

It's still difficult around these parts, but there is someone in the office, and I'm told the shop will be re-opening this afternoon, if all continues to improve.

Meanwhile, I still can't get out of my house.

The shop remains closed today (Sunday).

As you will have heard or read, conditions really are very difficult in the mid- and north-east Wales area.

Watch this space for updates (which may not be timely, since I can't get out of my house either!). 

Difficult weather conditions today, and no electricity either, so the shop is closed for the day.
