For around two months from Monday 19 September, our pannage pigs will snuffle and grunt their way through the woodland, feasting on all the fallen acorns, beech mast and chestnuts.

Don't forget tomorrow starts the new Facebook rule where your photos can be used. Don't forget the deadline is today!!! It can be used against you in court cases. Everything you've ever posted will be public starting today - including messages that have been deleted. It costs nothing but a simple copy and paste, better safe than sorry.
I do not give Facebook or any Facebook related organizations permission to use my images, information, messages or posts, both in the past and in the future. With this statement, I announce to Facebook that it is strictly forbidden to copy, share or take any other action against me based on this profile and / or its content. The content of this profile is private and confidential information. The violation of privacy can be punished by law: Facebook is now a public entity. All members must post this note.
If you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you don't post a statement at least once, you will be silently allowed to use your photos and the information in profile status updates. DO NOT SHARE. Copy and paste.
The new algorithm chooses the same few people - like 25-who will read your posts.
That's why:
Hold your finger on this post and it appears ′′ Copy ". Click ′′ Copy ". Then go to your page, start a new post and tap your fingers into the blank field. Insert will pop up, click insert.
This will bypass the system.

Covid Update – applicable from 4th July 2020
As Moortown Lodge is a combination of guest accommodation and our home, and following a Covid risk assessment, we regret it is not practical to re-open at this time.
For the sake of clarity, currently we will not be taking bookings for the remainder of 2020.
We very much look forward to seeing guests old and new in 2021, when hopefully the Covid threat will have reduced sufficiently for us to provide a secure and welcoming experience.
Until then we wish everyone good health in these extraordinary times.
Sabine and Mark

After another lovely sunny day in the New Forest we’d just like to remind everyone about social distancing and avoiding travel to the forest unless it’s essential. Why is this? Well, firstly mass movement of people contributes to the spread of this virus. Secondly, the New Forest’s public health system is only designed to meet the needs of its full-time local residents and given our "super-ageing" population it is likely to be under immense pressure.

We would love to see all our regular visitors, but we really need you to support Government advice to stay at home and stay safe. We all have a responsibility – visitors, visitor businesses and local residents - to heed government advice and help save lives.

If you have a holiday booked in the coming weeks please contact the provider directly. If you’re postponing a visit, we look forward to welcoming you in happier times 🌳💚

For us, this time is an opportunity to spend time together and reflection. Do all the wonderful things that I love: baking, gardening being free to have 5 minutes to think and take stock. The world will never be the same and part of me (with a heavy heart) is relieved that we have stopped!

There will be sadness too as we see what's happening around the world is getting closer. In my view we will be effected if we don't take responsibility and drastic action fast to hunker down.

It has been difficult for me to stop my traditions like hugging and kissing but I have, we must.

A few tips that I learnt yesterday and we have implemented practices to protect us and others at home:
🕯️Corona is able to spread through clothing, using your sleeve to cover your finger at an ATM or a cash desk is not enough. Supermarkets especially should be using alcohol between each customer.
🕯️Corona survives on metal for up to 9 days unless washed with soap and water or alcohol: handles, Bannister's, tables.....
🕯️Drink hot drinks / hot water every 20 minutes to clear any virus away from your mouth into your stomach which is hostile for Corona.
🙏Do you have tips you can share below with our Love to b community? Let's support each other from a distance. Stay safe friends j 💞x
