At last. A warm Friday night. Cold cuts. A jug of wine. Fresh cheese. Fresh Labneh. Chimi churri with kale from the green house. Home made sour dough bread.
And those good, good friends – the kiwi builder, (back for a visit) Jake, The Matriarch.
And thou.
Bliss.
That lovely ‘tired from a late night out on the dark verandah’ – out under the stars, talking about nothing much (and everything) ‘et al’. Cats swarming. Dogs on their backs. A pigs occasional sleepy grunt. Peacocks soft calling. Pigs in their wallows.
What a day.
I hope this wee video works – if it does – so sorry for the abrupt end – I was ambushed by Poppy.

Love those warm nights with good food & good company. That’s my plan for this evening!
ROFL – I love the video 😉
Thought you might Mad. Our lovely Sheila.. c
I imagine Poppy go jealous and pushed you 🙂
I was sat on the ground taking the wee video so she was thrilled to see her favourite plaything in reach.. she wanted a belly rub, that pig is all about the belly.. morning mad..c
Aside from the reluctant cow, those animals really do love you 😉
Reblogged this on rennydiokno.com.
What fun! Thank you. And very good morning to you to all. xx
Loved the video. What was that sound I heard in the background – one of the peacocks?
Yes barb – that was a peacock and I am fairly sure that was Mr Flowers.. c
Sheila has such a good life. Who ever knew I would envy the life of a pig? Was that Aunty Del in the background?
Yes Pat, that is our lovely Aunty Del and she is a real Aunty to these young calves, often seen sleeping with one of them.. c
Loved the video! And hearing your voice! 😃
You can tell I had not used it very much that day. c
Lovely, lovely Sheila and Poppy bounding in for a curtain call….brilliant!
Great video, thanks. Mr Flowers is loud. Enjoy your verandah evenings – we are hunkering down inside behind drawn curtains and under fleecy blankets this weekend. It is ‘freezing’. Laura
The video is wonderful!
Oh what riot watching Sheila “sow around” in the mud!! – as we used to say!! Friday was gorgeous day – 79 degrees warm and NO wind for once! I bet the whole Farmy had a great time! Cute picture of the kunes!! But I’m really glad that You and a few others enjoyed the evening with some wine and cheese!! We sat out by the fire pit enjoying our Paisano red wine listening to the birds sing and build their nests! G’day!!
Loved the video! The life of a pig is good…
