Fantastic Kindle Cover Tuff-Luv It's a must buy I would say.
Kindle Covers
My husband has taken charge of this cover Tuff-Luv Embrace Amazon Kindle Cover - Electric Blue which can be bought at http://www.lovecases.co.uk/ or http://www.gearzap.com/
It has meant he could take his Kindle to work to read at lunchtime, he used to worry the screen would get damaged but the Tuff-Luv cover has solved this problem. The Kindle fits in perfectly and is held securely by the corner straps and the cover is then held in place bay an elastic band like an old fashioned journal. The cover is beautifully made and whilst it has a lifetime guarantee I think this is offered because they are so well made it will not be needed.

I have bought Wagg product's for years for all of my dogs they seem to agree with there digestive system and they never waste anything from the range which can be seen here Wagg Dog Food
These Tasty Treats are Meaty square-shaped chunks in chicken, beef and ham, enriched with vitamins and minerals giving you a seriously tasty treat.
With no added sugar or artifical colours or flavours I am sure your dogs will love these oven baked goodies so please buy a bag when you see them for sale.

Busy times
As you can see the wood keeps us very very busy all year supplying a few of our neighbor's The length of the wood you can see is 1 metre lengths so a alot of wood we go through every year. We have 3 chainsaw's to use but the poor things are starting to get tired and we do use alot of chains & at least one cutter bar every year. I don't need to go to the gym because I get plenty of exercise lugging these logs about a few times a week. The next picture is my baby the electric log splitter wow best present I've ever had lol I hate letting people on it but now and again I will share it lol. This is it and its amazing the size of logs it will split with no effort apart from one button and a lever that's it.
My hubby still uses the big ax sometime's but so easy to use my machine so that's my job and with the weather being so cold we have been trying to get as much wood in the barn as we can.
The picture below is my inset log burner in my kitchen and I love it it gets so toastie and warm in there and it takes 500 mm log's so quite a big fire. We have another one similair that has been fitted into our living room that we are renovating from an old room that had an earth floor but we are finding it hard to do wood, work & renovate but slowly we are getting there we have put 2 windows in and 2 to go but it takes a while to get the whole ready for a window with the cob wall's being 3 foot thick.

Owning an Ipad not all there cracked upto be.
Like I said ive had mine a few years now and never had any trouble with it but I think I would if I was buying another tablet certainly look at other one's that at around at the minute because there are some amazing one's at alot less money that will run java for playing online games. I actually quite like the look of the Blackberry playbook or the Google Nexus 7 which has a great long battery life which is very handy indeed. But my favourite is the Samsung Galaxy tablet I would quite like a camera with my old ipad not having one. The Samsung Galaxy Tablet looks fab and love the feature of doing screenshots which is very handy indeed for what I would be using it for. So hopefully in the future I will get one of these to have a good play on and should use it more than I do the Ipad.
Then the next job will be to update my phone so I need to do abit of investigating around some of the review site's on phone's so that I get everything I want from a phone before I buy one. I will tell you all i'm still using a Nokia N70 please don't laugh lol ive had it since the world cup 2006 and that still come's on when I turn the phone on and yes it always's makes all my friends chuckle when they here it and have to go and have a look at it. In a few years it will be antique lol so yes it's certainly time for a nice change and one that I can get online with .
I quite fancy and Xperia or Samsung S3 they look great so will have to have a look and a feel of them and see what there like to use. As you can see this year is the year for upgrading gadget's for us so I said once i've been sorted out properly with all this we will start on his but maybe next year because his are all ok but might upgrade his basic kindle to a kindle fire for him with him working so hard he need's a treat bless him.

Everyday life, the good and bad days: Well another year gone and can't complain about 20...
I didn't do my veg past last year with not being well for a few month's but will definitely be doing it this year Ive missed not being able to just go and pick what fruit and veg we wanted daily. The main thing that we missed was our dog Blue he is so funny with the sprout plants he picks his own sprouts off the plant and eats them plus the apple tree's we have are only small yet and he can reach the apple's aswel which he does eat lol really funny to watch and I will put a video of him picking his fruit & veg on here for you to see.
We haven't had any more double or triple yolker's this year but still it was amazing to see a triple and will probably never see another one again in my lifetime. We put it on you tube and amazing all the comments we got about it.
Well my competitions I enter on a daily basis was amazing wow I had some good Win's last year so will carry on entering them and you get such a lovely feeling when you get a winning email saying what you have won it's very nice and I might add some of the wins on here as I win them its interesting to see what I win and as they say you have to be in it to win it.
