Though I guess when I said 'nothing new', that wasn't quite true. 5 months after losing Skye, we decided it was time to make the house feel like a home again. This little guy is coming home with us next week, and I am sure that he will be our greatest adventure of next year!

It's been a long time since I trained a puppy, so if you'd like to follow his adventures (and my inevitable breakdown 😂) you can follow all the goings on at our smallholding over at Little House on the Wight, and we are also on the 'gram if you are there too, we are littlehouseonthewight 😊

Many thanks to Little House on the Wight for last week here SmallholdersUK . If anyone would like a week tweeting to our 21k+ followers, contact me Debbie Kingsley.

First hints of autumn. Harvesting the red cabbages and making red cabbage casserole, and having excess apples from that picking, it had to be the first apple crumble of the season too.
