Oh dear, this morning I heard a loud moooooing noise right outside my bedroom window. I know that sound very well as I often hear it when it blows in with the wind on windy days. I quickly put on my boots and opened my kitchen door. I couldn't see anything, but on walking around to my vegetable garden there in front of my sleepy eyes, right in the middle of my lettuce patch, stood a big brown and white cow. Oh my goodness, what a naughty cow ! She had squashed lots of my newly planted, scrumptious lettuce plants. I recognised her as Gertrude from Greengate Farm at the other end of Wiggleway Lane. She was rather big, much bigger than me but she was very friendly. I took a piece of rope from my garden supplies box, draped it around her neck and led her back to her field at the farm. She seemed happy to be back with her friends again but I was not too happy to see a big patch of squashed green leaves in my vegetable garden. I must make sure I keep my gate closed. I do love cows but naughty ones are a bit too naughty to be allowed through my garden gate .
Rainbow coloured love from your friend Sherbetx

Sherbet is so happy for all the new lambs at Greengate Farm
Well, here I am again.
I must say I am feeling very tired as I have been working very hard. There always seems to be so much to do in my garden and in Clover Cottage too. Thank goodness I have my lovely garden to rest in. It is so peaceful and I really love just sitting here listening to the birds tweeting in the trees. From this little tranquil spot in my garden, the wind seems to be blowing in the right direction as I can hear the new lambs baaaaaing in the fields of Greengate Farm at the other end of Wiggleway Lane. How lovely! I can imagine them leaping up and down in the air in their new happy, adventurous lives. What a delight to be a new lamb living on this planet. Abundant fresh, green grass to bounce around on, the warm sun shining down on them, lots of wool to stay cosy in, wonderful sheep friends from nearby and far far away and many, many rainbow coloured days ahead of them to discover wondrous things in. How exciting for them. What could be better. Tomorrow, I will walk along Wiggleway Lane to Greengate Farm and introduce myself to all the new lambs.
Love from Sherbetx

A new name for the farm at the end of Wiggleway Lane
Well, Pearl, Doodle, Mango and I really enjoyed our scrumptious Italian meal yesterday evening and we are so grateful to the farmer for making it possible. Doodle has painted him a delightful picture of his farm to express our gratitude and we are going to take it over to him this afternoon. After our delicious meal yesterday we all sat around my kitchen table and thought of a name for the farm at the end of Wiggleway Lane so that no-one could get lost ever again trying to find it. We thought of so many names, Mango said it should be called Flower Farm and I said but they do not grow flowers there only wild flowers! Doodle said it could be called Fruit Farm so Pearl said but they do not grow fruit there only wild fruit! I said why not call it Farmer's Farm but Pearl said well, no I am sorry Sherbet but that does sound rather silly. She said I have a good idea that we can tell the farmer, I think it should be called Greengate Farm because it has a big green gate. Oh what a brilliant idea we all said to Pearl. Thank goodness Pearl is so clever, we are so lucky to have such a wise friend. Greengate Farm is a wonderful name and we hope the farmer likes it, we also hope he likes the painting Doodle made especially for him.
