“All is quiet, all is still as the first stars appear in the evening sky. As night closes in, the farm settles down with all the animals, big and small, knowing that now is the time to snuggle into their warm cosy beds.” Hush say the Stars, it’s time to be still. The gentle cows gather on the side of the hill. Time for sleep.'
