Good morning......


       .......to this brilliant first Autumn day, and to our first winter frost. The garage roof and cars are sparkly for the first time this season.  The sunshine is brilliant, too "brittle" to last for long, so make the most of it.  Darsh is still snoring in bed, Joe is helping him.  So I am enjoying a peaceful breakfast on my own, with my coat, on the patio.


 
                .....This pair of pigeons are still sat, trying to raise a family on a platform, rather than a nest of twigs.  They have been sat for around 6 weeks now.  I wonder how much longer they will stay before they work out it just isn't going to happen.  We wonder if they are a young and inexperienced pair.  The "platform" is so small she has trouble balancing, any eggs would roll straight off and it is so easily spotted the magpies would soon raid it.



     Have had a productive week, my passport has been sent for, I've got a new I-Pad as my old one simply stopped.....sorted clothes for the cruise, started a course of acupuncture for my back and knee, attended my hospital appt. and decided that was a total waste of time, so acupuncture it is then.
       I also walked Joe around the block for the first time in a month.  It's only a little block but my knee was so sore when I got back, and Joe was cross, he didn't want to do the little block, he wanted to take on Sutton park, he dug in his heels and pulled on his collar.  I was worried as I daren't pick him up and he might slip out of his collar if he pulls it just right.  My toddlers never threw tantrums, but my dog can if his walk is too short.
    Last night it rained...."Walk Joe?".....definately not!
