April 21st – Another blooming lovely day

Not too much to say today, but hopefully a nice picture for you. This was taken whilst taking the dogs out earlier. The blossom and blue skies definitely helps lift ones spirits. Imagine if we had to endure lockdown during mid winter, with cold weather and grey skies. Let’s all stay home, stay safe andContinue reading “April 21st – Another blooming lovely day”

April 14th – Lazy Munsterlander

Today’s picture was taken this afternoon. Denise decided to take some time out to read her kindle after working hard in the garden, however Alfie decided to join her on the swing seat. Nothing is sacred with a Large Munsterlander in the home. If he isn’t talking asking for your breakfast, lunch, dinner or coffee,Continue reading “April 14th – Lazy Munsterlander”

April 7th – More help in the garden

Another fabulous day weather wise and so we carried on with some chores around the garden. One of our lovely neighbours had started a bonfire and had asked if we had any rubbish that we needed to get rid of as all of the recycling centres are closed due to Corona Virus (keeping a safeContinue reading “April 7th – More help in the garden”

April 1st – What’s mum doing?

How are you filling your days? Well, if you’re not a key worker, I’m guessing you have more time on your hands than normal. I’ve seen quite a few posts about people being bored, and so my posts over the next few days will attempt to give a few suggestions, that most people should beContinue reading “April 1st – What’s mum doing?”

March 28th – Escape, Run for the hills!!

OK, a bit dramatic I’ll grant you, but it was great to get out with the 4 legged children this afternoon. We are extremely lucky to live where we do, and although we love travelling, the countryside right on our doorstep is just stunning. The picture’s below is inspired by the classic film – AContinue reading “March 28th – Escape, Run for the hills!!”

March 24th – Chilling in the spring sunshine

Callie says ‘Hi’ from our back garden. It has been a bright spring day, and she has had a great time playing ball, eating and snoozing in the sun. It will soon be cuddles time, an evening ritual that she insists on. Thankfully, she is completely oblivious to the current Covid-19 crisis, however many areContinue reading “March 24th – Chilling in the spring sunshine”

March 23rd – Social distancing

I’m not sure the 4 legged children have got the idea of social distancing or self isolating…. It would be great to have 2 minutes to sit quietly and use my laptop or phone without aforementioned kids shoving a wet nose in your face, giving you a wash or using you as a bean bag.Continue reading “March 23rd – Social distancing”

March 19th – So close…..

As we park up in a motorway Aire for hopefully our final night on our trip (albeit finishing 10 days early than planned), I reflect back on our experience over the last eight plus weeks with a mix of very fond and weird memories. One of the weird ones happened today: We took the 4Continue reading “March 19th – So close…..”
