We had to keep a sharp lookout for the ponies as we were in their enclosure, in a bit of the park I've never walked before, and I don't think that I would if I were on my own, as it was very isolated and mine isn't the greatest guard dog you've ever seen. However dad was with us yesterday so we were a bit braver. We didn't see any ponies-the only time I've seen them is way over the other side by the water.
Joe was shattered afterwards and didn't hear much from him for the rest of the day, while I spent the afternoon sweeping and tidying the back yard, ready to plant a few pansies and bulbs in my now empty bedding plant pots today and so it rains- rethink my plans.
Have found us a good fire work display for next Friday Sara. It is in the village, and so we can walk there via the Hardwick Arms, and enjoy their fireworks and BBQ. Maybe a bag of chips on the way back? Or another stop at the Hardwick all depending on how cold it is. John's Wellies are under the stairs ready for him, and I've made space for us to sit out and let off fireworks in the garden on Saturday. I just need to get some sausages for our hot-dogs.
Selina and Pete should be busy this weekend, if they can dodge the raindrops. When we went over last weekend dad helped them build a summer house...
...the planning....
....and the roofing.
It looked really good when we finished, but now they need to fasten on all the trims and the edges to hold the felt tighter, draught excluders round the dooors and windows etc. And then, possibly in the spring, plan what to do with that mud bath in front and around said shed!
