Holding Page

Welcome to my blog!
I've decided to set this up to share a little bit about the walks that we do, what books I read and basically our life in general. I intend to keep adding different links and information along the way, so please come back from time to time and see what there is, and feel free to comment on anything.

Mid week finish

Yay! No more work this week. I finished work at 3pm today and I'm not back until the dreaded Monday morning. 

And the reason for my short week this week? It's wood whittling day tomorrow! I'm heading north tomorrow for a day learning how to transform a block of wood in to a bird shape using a very sharp knife and lots of patience. I think DD is more excited about it than I am, and she's not even coming with me!  Hopefully I will have photos of the day to share soon. 

I had an emergency trip to buy new wellies on Monday to go dog walking. The path by the canal that we've started using has been getting muddier and muddier over the last few days, and my right foot has been getting wetter and wetter each time. So I decided to check my old wellies, and lo and behold there was a huge slit along the side. Time for new ones .......


I'm so glad I got them. With yet more rain over the last few days, walking Oscar with shoes on is not an option unless we walk by the main road. But the canal is so lovely ......


......I really don't know why we haven't been walking here for years. Although it means going in the car. And my car is getting just a bit muddy in the back now..... I really must train Oscar to stay on the towels! 

So, fingers crossed for a good day tomorrow (and hopefully no fingers will be damaged in the process of whittling).....
