Ten is the number




It must have been the effect of the 'SuperMoon' being 30% closer to the earth than normal because on Saturday morning when Delila came out for her breakfast some of her little ones were already playing outside the ark - at not yet three days old......
They soon scampered back in again when they heard me though so I followed and managed to count them before they all piled up on top of each other again.....
Definitely 10 - Delila's favourite number. That makes three tens in a row: the 10 Delinquants this time last year, followed by the 10 Little B's in September and now The 10 Clarissas ("What a Thought" said The Boss when I wrote it up on the Family Tree Board.) That's what we've dubbed the litter for now: we thought to name them after the chefs on the programme - but we don't yet know who they all are! So in the meantime, The Clarissas will remind us of their provenance.....
Clever Delila....

Well if that was the "SUPER MOON" then the normal moon must look like a little star in the sky!!!
