Amongst all the late health upsets, I have managed to sneak in my long planned and booked trip to Suzy in Glynneath. Sadly, none of the potential Midlands homes has come off, so there were no other piggies to bring back with me.
Sadly I had just over an hour's time to meet ALL of Suzy's residents (including a little cuddle with Baldric) before I had to start my return journey early, no thanks to a freak lightning strike frying some signal boxes between Neath and Cardiff. It was great to meet all those faces from Suzy's pictures in pigson - they were even more gorgeous! drool How I managed to get out of there and on the train - without any more piggies - I don't know, but it must have somehow happened...
However, little 11 week old Hedydd has survived her epic journey remarkably well and was tentatively out and about, meeting Tegan and greeting the rest of the Tribe within minutes of arriving.
Hedydd is a Welsh name that means sky lark and is pronounced Hed-ith. It was Suzy's favourite name from my short list. Hedydd is one of the sisters of the "Ginger Army". Had her older sister sadly not still been on pregnancy watch, I'd snaffled her too!

Here she is herself now:
Meeting Tegan with whom she's been together in a pen since yesterday evening to give her time to get her bearings and recover from her journey.
Breakfast time:

Hedydd has just arrived and is meeting her new family


This one is a bit later on when Hedydd and a rather unamused Tegan had moved on to the dominance phase of bonding

Currently, Hedydd is moving in with the Tribe after watching her pen being raided in typical Tribe style as soon as I opened the connection. There are no problems at all, except all the pellets are gone and the Hedydd's haycake has been liberated, too! mallethead
Terfel and Caron are back home again as well and have settled in with their friends with delight!
