Yesterday I went to an author talk with Chloe Dalton. She talked about her journey raising a rescued, orphaned leveret. Listening to her was like sitting by a campfire. Safe but unexpectedly exciting. And it was about much more than 'just' a magical encounter with a wild animal.

My husband cleaned our log burner and we read the manual together and realised why it wasn't working properly. It is now perfect and we have had a lovely day baskingin the heat of the log fire
I have started one of the books I was gifted. It is called Bothy written by Kat Hill. All good so far I am learning a lot
We had smoked haddock and poached egg for dinner. A nice change from meat
