Hi folks fairly normal day. Except the weather which was abnormally good! The conference continued with Susan attending. I did my normal chores plus a bit more gophering filling in gaps as required. Half of the new chickens were missing this morning but after a short mad panic I found they were hiding around the back of the chook shed outside the fence. The ducks quacked, the goats bleated and the chooks clucked and all was good.
The food for the day plus the room cleaning went off seamlessly as far as I could tell thanks to the efforts of our helpers who really rose to the occasion.
Community dinner tonight was a good example. A perfectly cooked beef rump roast (modesty forbids naming the individual responsible especially since there was no great skill involved), with a good blend of roast and boiled vegetables(Susan) and some excellent Yorkshire pudding(Suzanne). The fare was traditional and excellent. After tea a new card game. I missed the start but it was called Jungle Speed or something like that. Involving matching card patterns and grabbing a wooden icon in the centre of the table. A lot of laughs. So to bed and tomorrow a million rooms to clean well a fair few anyway so I won't get many helpers.
Susan's conference report follows.
