Forget drying anything on the clothesline, I can&rsquo;t even&nbsp; walk down to feed the horses without coming back smelling like the inside of a&nbsp; chicken shed! At least in a few weeks the paddocks will be all green and pretty,&nbsp;and the geese certainly love fossicking through for worms.<br /><br /> I&rsquo;ve just&nbsp;done a Q &amp; A session with Sarah from The Book Reading Gal&rsquo;s, after Getting&nbsp; Wild received a great review at <a title="" href="http://thebookreadinggals.com/2013/09/getting-wild-by-sarah-barrie.html" target="_blank"><u>http://thebookreadinggals.com/2013/09/getting-wild-by-sarah-barrie.html</u></a><br />  It&rsquo;s always a thrill&nbsp;to read that someone has enjoyed something I&rsquo;ve had so much fun writing. After&nbsp; taking a really good look around the site, I can say that it has loads of&nbsp; helpful reviews for anyone contemplating what to read next.<br /><br /> Have a great&nbsp; day!</div>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
