Welcome to the Long Valley Lookers' Blog: Sunday 2nd July

Emergency Procedure

If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure:

Call the office on 01256 381190.
If no one answers, wait for the answering message which will detail the name and mobile number of the member of staff who is currently on call.
Phone the on-call member of staff who will then respond accordingly.

NOTES:

Please do not phone a member of staff directly unless you know they are on-call.

If you are unsure if a particular situation qualifies as an emergency then please phone the on-call member of staff anyway so that they can make the decision on how to proceed.

Most importantly of all – please do not report injuries or sick animals via the blog alone – always call the emergency on-call contact.

Thank you!

Sunday 2nd July - All 7 seen

The cows were all found in the area around ///uncouth.bulbs.radio at noon today. Cow 234 was lying down, resting and chewing her cud. The other three were standing, doing the same. The cows had found a nice, cool spot under the cover of some trees, which didn't have too many flies.

Two ponies were busy munching on fresh grass around ///frowns.lizards.hexes at 12:20. The third was a close by munching away at ///irrigate.stars.rams ten minutes later. They all had a number of flies on their faces, which weren't disturbing their grazing too much.

There was still plenty of water in the pond, and there was still water pooled at the hydrant sign close to where the cows were hiding out.

The cows and the ponies were all good today.
