<p>Crumble, our youngest dog is the proud Mother of 6 puppies!!&nbsp; It is very exciting, and they are gorgeous!!&nbsp; (Great time waster's, I have to keep looking at them to see if they are all ok, and not getting on with my work!).</p>
<p>We've had a busy few months, which has been great.&nbsp; The boys are doing well at school, Charlie is going up to Senior School in September - where does time go?&nbsp; Sam seems to have completed his first year at Senior School without breaking into too much of a sweat!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I need to mow the lawns, have let the grass grow quite long and it is now covered in daisies!!&nbsp; But it won't stop raining at the moment!</p>
<p>Hope to see you again sometime soon.</p>]]></content></entry><entry><title>A Lovely Email!</title><id>http://www.churtonheathfarm.co.uk/news-and-events/2011/3/27/a-lovely-email.html</id><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.churtonheathfarm.co.uk/news-and-events/2011/3/27/a-lovely-email.html"/><author><name>Vanessa Stratton</name></author><published>2011-03-27T09:14:00Z</published><updated>2011-03-27T09:14:00Z</updated><content type="html" xml:lang="en-GB"><![CDATA[<p>Hello Vanessa,<br /><br />Thank you, again, for your part in making our 50th Wedding Anniversary 'Break' such a memorable one.&nbsp; <br /><br />We had a wonderful 2 days in Chester and N.
