Road Blocks

I never know quite what I'm going to come across when I set off for my daily trip to the Post Office. It is only a mile away - but in that mile all kinds of hazards and obstacles seem to pop up.
This morning a rather cute Highland calf took an age to cross over the road - I couldn't resist taking a snap of him on my phone. This was after sitting there for 5 minutes for the flock of sheep to walk slowly up the road!

Yesterday I was following a car across the common, and they couldn't get the sheep to move out of their way - I must have looked like the local nutter as I jumped out of my car behind them and shooed the sheep off the road.
Apparently it is worse in the winter as the cattle hang around on the road when it is icy as they like to lick the salt!
We are busy working on finalising our Autumn brochure at the moment - with help by the multi skilled Lindsey Joyce who also designed our Isabella print. Isabella herself is currently on our homepage looking very fetching in her apron!
When we originally started nearly 2 years ago now - we only ever intended to be online - but we keep getting requests for a brochure, and hopefully it will enable us to reach a new part of the market. 

We have had some really good press coverage of late - our Isabella apron is in this months Country Living on the Emporium pages, and in the August edition of Period House you can see our Isabella fabric.
