Its a wet morning and the rain is definitely needed for the rearing paddocks and gallop. The week has gone well and all the new pups and mothers are doing fantastic. We will tidy the vans up, prepare for another busy week and do the last of the paperwork. Other than that it will be a typical Sunday where we cook, clean, feed and let hounds out of kennels. Newcastle United got a massive win yesterday and were just about safe. The weekend should get better for us magpies as Fulham is away to Arsenal and Burnley are away to Man Utd.
