The vicar went one up and released a live mole into your garden. You said he was a rum one...
I, er, wouldn't mind a mole in my garden, sorry but whatever I type, makes me *snigger* 
How is your farm going? Surely there is nothing potentially rude in that question

hey you its good to hear from you again
the small holding is doing well and also the school has a full complement too and I'm trying to catch the mole using a humane trap and I think there might be a few moles rather than one, if i catch the little blighter i'll give it a stern talking too and let it go in the vicars garden

I'm glad to know it is good to see me, you do know now you'll never be rid of me unless you humanely trap me and let me loose in the vicars garden

It is good to hear the school is running at full complement. Is that a free school?
Have you had time for any painting recently 
and how are the 
and Guinea Fowl?

Free school, not really there are fee's
not painting but made a new kitchen table, kitchen tops, and other stuff, made it all out of reclaimed wood, off the farm! and the Bats are living in one of the out buildings quite happy and doing all sorts of bat things, the guinea fowl are living with the chickens and the geese are looking good if a little noisy also the ducks have returned

I would dearly love to take a sledge hammer to my kitchen but apart from a small log pile in the garden I am short of wood. Besides they are for the beetles wouldn't want to put them out of house and home
I haven't found anything decent in a skip in yonks either, seems to be all rubble, rusting trampolines and degrading plastic stuff.
I see loads of great stuff at the recycling centre but they don't let you take stuff away

a sledge hammer eh! a nice thought
Fire wood is tough to come bye, and don't on the whole contain beatles
I try and recycle stuff not from skips but from building sites, the kitchen tops are made from, sweet chestnut, spruse pine boards, and cheery wood, sort the bad stuff out, cut into 1" by 2" what ever the length strips and glued (the top is the 1" side, into lengths of about 6' in length by 38" widths, by 2" thick! then sanded and either varnished or a clear epoxy resin applied! so you then got worktops or what ever you need to use it for
recycling centres are a real pain as they like to keep the stuff!
hope this helps

Erm, ok there is no such thing as a stupid question, still doesn't mean they are not sometimes embarrassing to ask 
How do you get things off a building site? The ones round here have great big fences and are patrolled.
I will keep my eyes open though, thanks for the tips and the link!
The sledge hammer would be fun and cathartic
How's your young un. Mine has turned 18 
and 
The grand parents tucked away money for when that day came and today she spent some of it on a camera of her dreams, very exciting, she has always enjoyed photography, so tomorrow are hoping that it will be frosty but sunny Autumn morning, pretty

>> guinea fowl are living with the chickens and the geese
are looking good if a little noisy also the ducks <<
Some of them critters are not strict vegetarians. So I wonder
how a mole has survived long enough to be observed by you.
I feed the crows around my place and they repay me by keeping
the field mice and moles under control. They love marrow bones
from pork and beef ribs and chicken and turkey legs as well.
