My mother in law doesn't "do" the country....well you can't can you? with designer jeans that you could eat your dinner off, two inch heels and a beautiful green coat (complete with sun glasses!!!)......she is just not slummy enough to be pottering around the allotment and field.Bless...she was game enough though!
She tottered down the muddy paths, fed the pigs with some bananas that she had brought all the way from Kent as a treat for them, then braved her phobias by looking at the chickens and turkeys
It was all a bit like watching an episode of The Good Life when Margo braves the elements to help save the piglets!
This morning she and Chris have gone to Chester....shopping!
Good on her, I love her coat.

She sounds like quite the lady.
ReplyDeleteIt's increasingly clear that with more hair and less beard, Chris really would increasingly be a dead ringer for Sorrel!
ReplyDeleteDo pass on my best wishes - to both of them!
She does dress like a city girl! And how brave she is for standing close to those big feathery critters she is afraid of! Kudos to her for bucking up and doing it! Looking forward to hearing about her visit.
ReplyDeleteShe is very elegant! I think she might like goats! Maybe those that don't put their hooves on her when they ask for mints though.
ReplyDeleteI haven't forgotten you. I will try to get a parcel out to you next week.

Aawww bless her...
ReplyDeleteAt least she has a 'go', full marks for effort.
She has the look of a lady, Lilibeth is a lady, but can still hold her own, when it comes to farmlife ;)
Naw't wrong with that.
Cute post, reminds me of my neighbor who knows "nothing" about farming. She walked in the barn one day and said, "What's that smell?" I just turned and laughed, didn't take her long to figure it out, especilly when it got on her white tennis shoes. Who wears white tennis shoes to a barn????
