Once at the farm we were made very welcome by Margo, Sandy and the three border collies. We settled in very quickly with Margo force feeding us every 10 munutes or so (only joking Mum). Karens brother John and his partner Tim were there having driven up from London a few days earlier.
The farm and surrounding countryside were beautiful in the crisp white snow.

The ford at the edge of the farm was completely frozen to a depth of about 6". We had driven Lizzy over this on arrival.
