I do hope you’ve enjoyed it thus far..
Thank you so much for being here and making it such fun.

Thank you so much for being here and making it such fun.
Congratulations. You are one of my favourites! Never too much and always funny and interesting; difficult to do! xx
You are one of my favourites too… thanks Em.
Congratulations! Sure have enjoyed your first year’s blog!! Long may you continue with your wonderful musings!!
Thank you.. I have been gifted a cast of great characters!
Good lord one already? Happy birthday ducks x
I know. Scary isn’t it. Thanks Sue.
Age becomes you!!! After all your trials and tribulations I would have thought you felt a lot older!!! x
I have more grey hair than last year..
Happy first blog birthday, may there be many more.
Thanks Jo. And thank you once again for the Blog of the Month. Really appreciated.
A very eventful year it’s been as well.
Many Happy Returns 😉
Hasn’t it just. Thanks Cumbrian.
Ah congrats my dear. I always love reading your blog- as Em said, succinct and funny, which is not easy to do but you manage it so well. CT x
Aw, thanks CT & likewise. I always know where to come for bird ID..our woodpecker family is bigger than I thought.. 3 chicks on the bird table yesterday. 🙂
Well done on completing 1 year in blog land. I’m glad to have discovered your site and always enjoy a visit.
You always seem so much further ahead in the garden than me.. I’ve so much enjoyed visiting you back.
Congratulations on your first blogaversary, wishing you many more to come 🙂

Denise, I take your comment very seriously, you being an English teacher and all. Thank you.
Congratulations. It doesn’t seem that long. I love reading about your adventures and seeing your wonderful pictures.
It really doesn’t, does it? Thanks Oma.
Congratulations and a Happy bloggy birthday !
I’ve so enjoyed your stories throughout the year, I know you are serious about your gardening, but I’ve laughed my frock off at most of your escapades 🙂
Here’s to the next…
~Jo
Defrocked? OMG. Watch out for the mice… 🙂
Thanks Jo
That’s great! I do enjoy stopping in and looking at your photos and reading about that pesky pheasant.
Looking forward to keeping up with your progress in the gardens there. Perhaps maybe youll become a quilt maker this winter?
Have a great weekend.
It’s on my list Suzanne..
Congratulations on a year of blogging, here’s to the next!
Many thanks.. it was harder than I thought!
Congratulations. I love dropping in to see what’s happening.
Thanks Anne. Ditto.
Happy anniversary! keep going; I love the RD vs Nature battles……
They show no signs of giving up..
Congratulations on your Anniversary – and you’ve achieved so much in that year! I still laugh at the bird-twirler, it was wonderful. I hope it’s still working? May the next year bring more successes, and more fun.
Thanks Virginia.
It is still working.. sort of. The experienced (and more determined) squirrels hang on for dear life until the three cycles of twirling stop, knowing that they then have free rein. Easy to spot a new squirrel on the block! We turned it off when the woodpeckers were feeding their chicks, a squirrel can sometimes upset the calibration and then it starts to twirl the birds too.. 🙁 The funniest thing is when the batteries are replaced. Then it twirls really fast – horizontal tail time!!
Well done, and keep the blogs rolling!
Thanks Vera. You too..!
Congratulations Jessica, your blog was one of the first I signed up to when I started blogging and is still one of my favourites, fantastic photography (I really need a decent camera!) and there’s always something to make me smile. Looking forward to the next year! Julie x
Our camera is getting quite old now.. but I think what we will get next is a macro lens. For some real close ups. Thanks Julie!
It’s always lovely popping over here to see what you are up to !
Just as I love popping back.. you always seem to be doing a lot more than me!
Loved it! And looking forward to more; wish you lived near us, you make us ol’ faarrmers chuckle!
Pats.
Thanks Pats. Rural life has been quite an eye-opener for me. I wouldn’t change it though, absolutely love it. Even with mice…
happy birthday!! wishing you many more happy posts!!!
Thanks Steph!
Congratulations, here’s to the next year 🙂
Thanks Cherie 🙂
Happy bloggy birthday, and may there be many more 😀
I hope so Annie, many thanks 🙂
Congratulations on your first birthday, I have enjoyed your posts and reading about all the animal challenges you have faced and those yet to come!

Yes, I have a feeling they will be back.. thanks Sarah.
Congratulations! I love to read your stories and look forward to following many more.
Many thanks Wendy. Living amongst animals generates plenty of stories does it not?
Congratulations…..I’m glad I found you. You are always interesting, amusing and a read I always look forward too.Here’s too many more successful years….have a drink on me.xxxx
You too, thanks! Cheers…

Happy Blogiversary – an excellent excuse for cake.
What a damn good idea!
Congratulations! I always enjoy my visits here:)
Thanks Rosie. From a brief peek it looks like you had a great week away too. 🙂
Time certainly does fly when you are having fun. Jon’s speech on Friday brought a lump to my throat. xx
So glad you had a good day… ours is coming up. 30 years, oh goodness!
Congratulations and happy anniversary. Thoroughly enjoy your Tales from the Cob House and regularly find it reassuring that we’re not the only mad people to take on huge projects :}
Thanks Bilbo. You are going much faster than us!
Happy Birthday, Rusty Duck. I hope the actual anniversary was fun and not quite as exciting as the event that triggered it.
I kept well clear of the edge Janice, Mike just kept well clear!
