You can buy micronised linseed, saves the grinding, and having seen the cost in the supermarket@TurnedUpInTipp I have this Krups one: link
I've been using it for a few years now and it's pretty good, very efficient although it doesn't have a huge capacity but that's only annoying when I'm grinding up an entire pack of linseeds at once.
really is, and seemingly everyone is having boiler issues so getting a repair is not easy! currently about to go and buy an electric heater to prevent at least one room from turning into a freezerOh no nightmare emm!
I feed the horses that! I pay £26 for a 20kg sack, but it's cheaper if you buy direct from the mill (they don't deliver to my postcode). £5.77 for 3kg direct https://www.charnwoodmilling.co.uk/mail-order/Horse_Food.htmlYou can buy micronised linseed, saves the grinding, and having seen the cost in the supermarketmuch cheaper
totally OT, but every time i see these beautiful photos of sheep it reminds me of the phrase "herding cats", I can just imagine a group of cats running everywhere besides in a lineI feed the horses that!

The ladies are disgusted with me for making them all have their fluke and worm dose. The Ewerhythmics are settling in at boot camp (it's the croft Loppy was born on and lived on for the first 6 years of her life, so she'll show the other two round!) and the rest followed me happily down to the point after I'd freed April who'd somehow managed to get her head stuck between a gate and a gatepost going after a tasty bit of gorse bush.
Ladies following me down the track, blue dot is single lamb, blue stripe twins, red dot no lamb.
First picture - that door looks so random lolA nice covering of snow here - enough to look pretty but not enough to be too disruptive. Sun is breaking through now with big patches of beautiful blue sky as opposed to earlier when it was snowing heavily and looked quite grey.
The toddler and I satsticky beaking out the windowpeople watching a neighbour clear their car this morning as it was snowing heavily - as soon as they had cleared one bit and moved onto the next it was then being covered in snow again. Like a comedy sketch.
ETA: Blue skies and wispy clouds.

Huge congratulations to Mr NP!!Just popping to say Mr NP got a job! You might remember he was made redundant recently. It’s a step up from the role he did before, so we feel like we’re on cloud nine today after months of worrying.

As it was bf decision he will pay ( thank god) I am (irrationally) scared of the blanketsa and sire issues lol, thank you for the advice though!Mind they are sooooo expensive to run I know not helpful but I think my electric blanket is cheaper I’m addicted to it but people keep telling me I might spontaneously combust

My horse and I share, I put it on my breakfast, they do smaller bags,I'm not a horse @Captainmousealthough that would be a plot twist. The DKL horse out for revenge, clattering away with its hooves on a keyboard as it takes down a 3kg sack of linseed.
It's supposed to get to -7°C overnight with tonight with some snow showers in the evening. This is how much we've already had (and my very sad sage plant which will hopefully recover).
