New Poultry Month of June!

Leroy, Maureen & Dotty!

"Flaming June"... Hmmm... not so flaming as yet!  This month we will see the introduction of new poultry here at Church Farm! On 9th June three new residents joined David, Chloe & Dora (our Khaki Campbell ducks) - Leroy with his 2 girls Maureen & Dotty - 3 Cayuga Ducks... they are being introduced slowly to David and his girls and will be fully integrated next week.  Also next week, we are eagerly awaiting the hatching of 3 of Davids offspring which are flapping about in their eggs in an incubator at the moment...

Our incubated Eggs.......

Wednesday 15th June should be 'pipping' day... hopefully!

Our biggest news from the last 4 weeks is that we have had our latest visit from the AA Hotel & Restaurant inspector on 11th May 2011. Aswell and staying at the top of 4 stars (therefore in the Highly Commended percentage) we have been awarded the AA BREAKFAST AWARD and Martin has now achieved AA 1 ROSETTE !  We are really pleased!!  

We have also heard that we have been accepted through nominations into THE GOOD HOTEL GUIDE 2012 which comes out in September this year so all in all a good few weeks!






Rosie & Megan are back at school for their final half term of this academic year.  Megs did get into the Park Wrekin Gymnastics development squad, so shes being pushed to the limit with 2 hours of gymnastics on a Thursday and Friday night after school for the next 4 weeks to see if she makes it into the full development squad for the summer. Good luck little Megsy!


Over half term, we had a great family day out!  We drove to Wolverhampton, took the TRAM into Birmingham and spent a full and action packed day at Birminghams THINK TANK! What a great place (when we eventually found it!) Past Present and Future set on 3 floors of exhibits, hands on investigations, things to do, draw, see - the girls were fully occupied with all ... finshed with a pizza in the city and a weary tram ride and drive home!  A highly recommended day out!

Here's hoping the 'flame' comes into June soon with some sun (with heat in it!)

Bye for now... Mel xxx
