It's a nice day here. The sun is shining (see it doesn't always rain here) no rain and no wind.

No idea what we are having to eat today. Mr WD is in his shed making something for me

Must be Friday. Fishman’s van along the street tooting his horn

I once fell through a cattle grid! Well, not right through but my leg went down. It was bloody sore. Stupid mutt at the time chased a rabbit over one across someone’s drive and got to the other side without doing himself any major damage but didn’t want him to risk coming back so went over to carry him. It was wet and my foot slipped on the way back so I was stuck with one leg through still carrying him.

Oh God, he’s not up here is he! I think it might be the lining of Barbour jackets.

I think theyre dangerous for dogs [and people] as they could break a leg! Murphy my last dog would go off like a rocket after a rabbit. He once chased a hare out of a field and up the road i ran after him...huffing and puffing up the hill worried he was going to get hit by a car....he caught the hare and proudly came back down and cavorted around the field with the still squeeling hare in his gob... thankfully he crunched down and dispatched it.....

My last pooch, a Labrador/Springer cross brought me several pheasants still alive but thankfully the poor things died of shock very quickly as I couldn’t bring myself to finish them off.

They were presents!
Can tell Murphy was built for speed and chasing! i like this pic as the water ripples seem to accentuate his lines

My dog decided to bring in hedgehog. I didn't know he had it until he spit it out in the kitchen. This was manu years ago.
