Congrats New Zealand!

Winners of the 2011 Rugby World Cup. A tough brutal battle against France with only a one point margin win. A nail biting game and a great one!
The Ballet was wonderful! We all loved it! A first for all three of us and our hats off to the Tasmanian Ballet Company for a beautifully performed colourful evening. A very different kind of entertainment for us all. And thanks to Mum and Dad who took us along as well of course!!
Today we said goodbye to Ollie and Laurie! These were two sheep who belonged to the previous owners of the Farm. They had stayed on with us for hopefully a romantic interlude with our ram Omar.It was relatively stress free catching them which was a relief as they are very big girls and off they went down the road in their trailer hopefully both in lamb!
Before their owners arrived (and while l was still at work) Geoff started to close off part of the Lean To next to the Apple Shed. Only partly done he has done a wonderful job and really will make the sheep easier to manage once its all finished.
Lilli and Treeka patiently looked on as usual.
Elle ,Louise and Omar looked on too. Wondering what on earth was going on!
One family member who was very visibly missing was poor little Possum. She doesn't seem very well and has spent the last 24 hours hiding in a Garden Sheds on top of an old canvas bag. She isn't a happy girl and we are quite concerned for her. She possibly has had a run in with something... a rabbit....wombat......feral cat............rabbit hole? Who knows, the possibilities are endless. She isn't visibly hurt just very stiff and a little fragile. We will leave her be for tonight and see how she is in the morning .A job isn't quite the same without her Supervision!
Elle had her second Zinc Sulphate foot bath which she stood like an angel for! She desperately needs a haircut. She looks like an enormous filthy ball of cotton wool!
