    The Roos have moved down a bit closer to the house. That sooky one with his head in Mum’s pouch has been sleeping all day. Must be time for lunch. 🙄


    I really think it’s time she gave him the goodbye message. He’s big to be still drinking from her. 😁

    Morning all,

    We've had some visitors as well @Pat E. Our small front garden has virtually nothing in it bar the dog toilet. Sorry - lawn :o 

    Until we get a barrier between us and the pavement, there's really not much point trying to grow anything else.



    The roses are all that are left that I want to keep. They've been heavily pruned and moved recently. Despite the odd weather, they were starting to establish and had loads of new growth, which has just provided breakfast for these vandals.

    I chased them up the road as they moved across to feast on the lovely front garden of our newest neighbours. I imagine that they will be less enthusiastic about trying to maintain it after a couple of years of providing free food to the Shauns.



    In the fields behind those houses at the top of our street is where they should be.

    I wasn’t expecting to see that in a town, Biglad. 😳. We also have neighbours who don’t look after their fences. Sigh,

    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 
    Sheep are such escape artists @Biglad ... I know, we used to have a small flock 🐑 🙄 mind you the bullocks got out once as well.., but that was due to walkers leaving a gate open 😠 
    That roo does look a bit too old to be that dependent @Pat E. Lovely to see them tho’.

    Morning Dove. Yes I think she is too soft on him. Her older one has obviously been weaned, but still hangs around her. Maybe she is just a caring mum. 🙄😁

    Only a couple of things irritate me about where we live and that is one of them @Pat E. Sheep have been wandering down our street (they often go as far as the town centre) for the 20+ years that we've lived here. The other gripe is that not once has our road been treated by the council when we get snow and ice :( 

    Complaining about either is a complete waste of time. Unless you derive pleasure from going round and round in circles!

    Anyway, not enough sleep and a grumpy start to the day. Coffee. Breakfast. Attempt to put gutter on shed and connect to water butt. What could possibly go wrong....

    🐏🐑🐏🐑 @Biglad 🤣🤣🤣.  Well that’s started my day with a smile 😀😀😀

    Bournemouth was looking splendid in yesterday’s sunshine.  And the alfresco/gazeboed fish restaurant was fab too.  And Chicklet was on great form .....soooooo lovely to see her. Made up for the flat tyre on the way down there 🙄.

    Looks a bit like Ozzie beaches, Chicky.

    @Biglad apparently what you need is someone who lives on your road to be elected to the council ... I’m told that can get roads gritted 😉 

    Lovely pics @chicky 😎

    Glad to be of service @chicky ;)

    That beach looks marvellous!

    Looks like I'll have to run for office then, d-fab. When I win by a landslide, I'm going to build an ivory tower in the middle of the field where those sheep should be. I'd be guaranteed never to see them ever again :D
