We have received the following request for help:

One of my bantams has gone missing between 9.00 am and  9.30am this morning. I fear the worst, that it has been a snack to another creature. But in case anyone finds her please let me know, thanks Glynis, tel 561.

Update – Tuesday November 26th: Glynis writes:

Great news, when I went up this morning the missing bantam had returned, no explanation as to where she had been for the last three days, but in good health. Happy days!

Calling all dog walkers, does anyone know of a safe area or field where we can let our spaniel puppy off the lead, attempting to practice his recall, (fingers crossed).

Thanks
Dawn & Steve

UPDATE – Alice is alive but elusive. She must be nesting. I spotted her having some food this morning but it was about two minutes before a conference call for work and by the time I’d finished she had gone again….. If she can survive another night without been found by Mr Fox I am hopeful of getting her back!

One of our hens (Alice) did not return to roost yesterday – she has never done this before. When not here at Pond Cottage she normally only strays as far as the field between ourselves and Veronica, or on the grass verge outside the main gate to that field.

Alice is friendly and is quite easy to spot as she is a Light Sussex hen (mostly white with a black/grey tail as per photo below); however, we have had a good look around and can see no sign of her or of any feathers…… There is a small posibility that she has made a nest somewhere, in which case she should reappear for a few minutes everyday for food and water.

If anyone sees her, or has any idea what might have happened to her, please could you let us know – even if it’s not good news….?

Many thanks

Emma and Rob

We have a guest staying in Tom’s Barn with her lovely but rather elderly dog, Lottie, who is diabetic and very partial to Bonios which form an integral part of her special diet. Unfortunately, her supply has come to an end and this is proving rather a crisis as Janet doesn’t have them in the shop and we can’t get our cars out onto the road, even if the road to Ashbourne was clear…

Trevor W has most kindly offered to buy some if he succeeds in getting to Ashbourne later today but meanwhile – and just in case he can’t get through –  does anyone have a spare box of Bonios we could borrow and replace when the weather and roads improve, please?

Please ring us on 519 if you think you could help out. Lottie would be eternally grateful, as would Jill her owner and of course, so would we too!

Thank you to a Creamery Lane resident for sending this in.  The perennial problem of people not clearing up after their dogs:

Not again …. ?!?

Oh dear, Holland lost again and is out of Euro 2012, so I’m upset, but only mildly.

What has upset me much, much more is finding yet again a pile of dog faeces (or ‘poo’ to most people) on Creamery Lane/at the bottom of the drive.

Who is allowing their dog to wander and do their business anywhere without tidying up afterwards?

This is the second time in only 3 days and I pray it doesn’t become a regular event.

If it does, I will have no option but to sniff out the culprit and publish a mug shot …

This particular bunny was sighted and snapped by our roving reporter. Could it be the Easter Bunny? We may be mistaken, but it looks like this little fella is hiding some eggs.

Our cat Bob, who is a real creature of habit, has not been seen for over 36 hours.  This is very, very unusual for him.

He is black and white, wears a red collar with a pirate tag (unless he’s slipped his collar) but his most distinguishing features are his extra toes on each foot (he has “thumbs”) and exceptionally long whiskers.

Please, please keep your eyes peeled and let me know if you spot him. I’m hoping he is just out and about enjoying the good weather, but we are quite worried.

Marion & John F-S are extremely relieved that “Boots” has returned. Whilst they were away at the weekend  Boots, their cat went missing.

Janet B had been hunting high and low and so had lots of other kind people, so the F-S’s would like to let them know that all is well, and to say a big thank you for their help and concern.

Thank you all of you who helped look for Lucky and spread the word about the fact that she was missing.  Jack and I went on a two hour drive yesterday putting up posters and delivering leaflets in the surrounding area resulting in a call from Sitterlow Farm to say that she had been seen there.  So we collected her last night and she is back home safe and sound.
