Over the last few weeks we’ve been lambing on the family croft. As a vital part of island life, it’s something we’ve always been used to - but it struck us that there might be some important life lessons to be learned from this activity that we could share with you:

-

-
Twenty seconds is not long enough to wash your hands.
-
Napping on demand is essential to crofting life.
-
Tea breaks are where it’s at (bring biscuits).
