2014 Lambing Rally

There were six caravans at Northfield Farm near Kettering. In the field next to the rally field we had lots of ewes with their lambs along with three alpacas, one brown, one white and one black.

Evenings on site were spent in either Harold & Jean's caravan or Ray & Sheila's, a tight squeeze with twelve of us but it all added to the fun.

One evening was spent at the local pub to celebrate Ray's birthday where the staff brought his dessert in complete with lighted candles.

We were invited to go and see the lambs and feed Tiny Tim who was too small to be outside with the others.
