  • Ooooh  Pat what a beautiful sight.......I would happily spend the day doing your washing-up if I could look out from your kitchen window on that lovely view!! I can look out over fields and woodland and see deer, rabbits, pheasants, horses, but..........roos!  how lovely they are. Heard on the news this week that there has been an increase of reported sightings of wallabies in UK woods and.........I want some in 'my woodlands'!!.

    Flowers. I'd not heard about the wallabies, but once I mentioned it, Hubby said he knew!  He never tells me anything interesting. (Just joking). Perhaps that's why I get so much pleasure from writing to you all over there.

    i think my little tale about my friends having called their  bulldog "Errol Flynn" wasn't as funny as I always thought it. 

    We really love watching the wildlife around here. There are three wallabies that recently started eating around the house area. They are so pretty. Lovely rusty colour around their shoulders and rump and a little white stripe along side of face.  They are much shyer than the Kangaroos and smaller.  One of them has a noticeable heavy pouch, so I'm hoping to see a little one soon.image

    Lovely photo Pat.

    Lou12 - do you have anymore photos of Norman Bates? I think I want to start up a fan club! He's so cute!

     Hello,

    This Brian, my three year old black labrador. Fortunately he has not been ill, but he has been my constant companion through a long illness from which I have now recovered. Although he's on the beach here, he loves being in the garden with me whether he's sunbathing on the lawn, trying to distract me from what I'm doing to play ball with him, or spying on me from his den under the Spirea image

    Brian looks adorable! What a bright and alert looking face in that photo.

  • Thank you, I used this photo because I think it shows his character.

    Love all your photos. How great it is to have these lovely companions. I've just cooked up another batch of Poodle tucker for miss fussy boots.  Chicken, vegs and arborio rice.  image

    Look what's been following me around the garden for about a week and a half, on Friday night it was very cold and she followed me indoors, been there ever since. It takes a long time for a cat to adopt a human. They won't be rushed. I have phoned the vet to report finding her, but no one had enquired. I have called her Daisy May, she is only about six to twelve months I would think.

    Lyn, I think Daisy may has chosen very wisely! She's absolutely beautiful and I'm sure will be a loyal friend! image

    Lovely pictures everyone!
