So, I’m turning 24. And somehow, in between the chaos, quiet moments, mistakes, and magic, I’ve managed to collect a few solid bits of life advice. Some I learnt the hard way, some were kindly given (and often ignored), and a few I really wish I’d known sooner. So here they are — 24 things for my 24th birthday. Whether you're 18 or 81, I hope at least one of these sticks with you

Warning: listening may cause uncontrollable urges to adopt a seal (or cry happy tears).

This week we’re diving into the weird, the wild, and the wonderful world of countryside life — from gross cow facts to the sweet joys of spring babies on the farms.

Oh and Joey isn't happy with Casper's hygiene.

You've been warned, this ones a bit yucky.

Not going to lie, this could have ended badly
