A quick update on Mr Lumpy he is no worse and the Nut Fairy is waiting up so he has his special
mix still every night. Derbyshire High Peak Badger Group will be making a post soon about the care that he is receiving due to the Nut Fairy still getting grief over his care… Yes I block and ban these people but then I get emails they search me out on other social media to troll
