Kieran’s a happy bunny now, playing on the digger. Today he and Nick removed the last two tree stumps and roots from the garden; they took more work than yesterday’s but Kieran lifted the last one out with the digger. His skill is impressive; he must have been a professional in a former life.  Perhaps we’ll have to cash in on this and run digger-driving courses next year 😉 The garden, however, does look as though we’ve been invaded by giant moles now; he’ll have to hone his levelling skills next.

I spent the day making a Christmas wreath and some little Christmas stockings to put on Adrian’s Christmas market stall on Saturday. He’s made some wooden reindeers, which just looked as though they needed something to hang from their antlers. I hope they sell; otherwise  Santa’s going to be horribly confused when he comes down our chimney to find 14 miniature stockings hung by the fireplace!

The “name the digger” competition is still open; we’ve had some great entries so far, but if anyone else has a suggestion, please send it in.
