Rewind Recap: Weekly Update W/E 19/04/26 Apparently last Tuesday was World Puffin Day. It would be totally remiss of me not to have recognised this fact by including some of my puffin pics from last year, so that is just what I am doing. I do rather love puffins, daft little boids that they are. I mean, they are super cute, right? Who doesn't love a puffin?
