Bawburgh had its bi-annual open gardens yesterday with over 250 visitors, we were rushed of our feet at the village hall with teas, coffees and tons of cakes. But it was a beautiful day and I think everyone had a good day - All the helpers were invited back to the Mill for drinks - it was great to see another side of Bawburgh - we had a good walk along the river and didn't realise how much beautiful meadow land surrounds this little village.

Anyway - Charlie the goose is having a trial split from his wife Doris - he's off gallivanting around the farm and lake all alone while Doris is meandering about with her 3 teenage children - don't know whats going on there!!! Mohamed and Cleopatra the Egyptian geese are bringing their two little chick's up close to the chicken coop where they get a daily dose of corn - they are getting closer and closer to the house and more and more used to us. Elvis and Priscilla the swans have had 4 cygnets - although I fear that might go down over the next few weeks.

We're getting ready for the PoP uP - more landscapping, more black paint and more plants for the monk jack deer to devour in the night - little buggers.

We have had a busy and full May and June but still have some available weeks and short breaks in July - Warm weather nearly always guaranteed - so pick up the phone and vote for me (just realised Britains Got Talent has finished) oh well - pick up the phone anyway or contact me with your inquiries, don't forget we offer fishing passes, do cookery classes and have special rates on Diner hire for our lovely guests - or just chill out by the lake on one of our picnic benches soon to be touched up with black paint, admire the garden (or the bits the wildlife don't eat), talk to the chicks and enjoy life.
