Whether the sun shines or the snow falls, there’s always farm work to do around the country and while we didn’t get much snow to speak of in comparison to the south, the frozen roads made travel rather tricky for a time. Though I rather enjoyed the morning slide to the shed in my wellies. In difficult times like that, it was heartwarming to see the time and effort many farmers put in to help others who were stranded in the snow. A modern day meitheal came to pass, ensuring medicines and groceries made their way to each door, not to mention the heroic effort by the farmers rescuing sheep from snowdrifts in the mountains.
