Pints or years? Either is a great thing. If it’s the later Happy Birthday 🥳

I’d love it if either of mine would even paddle but they just don’t, you’re lucky to have had a dog who got joy from the water.

Two dogs lay asleep on a sofa with shafts of sunlight on them

After the walk, the snooze

Haha neither of my dogs like water so we skirt around the edge … no Jesus dogs here!

Picture shows a small lake surrounded by trees. Ripples from the breeze show on the dark blue water. Above to the left a tree coming into leaf hangs over the water. On the far side of the water trees and shrubs of different heights and many shades of green frame the water. The sky is blue with one white, fluffy cloud in view.

Lovely dog walking weather this morning #SmallPleasures

As a child I used to go to a friend’s for tea and they often had tripe and onions. It was disgusting. I’m glad as an adult I never have to consider it as a meal option ever again

I’m expecting the dog will see a good digging opportunity where I’ve turned the soil so who knows what will actually appear 😂

Mine are a mix of Poppy, cornflowers, creeping daisy and borage 😊

Hope so. It’s so lovely out here

Good morning. It’s a bright start here and the birds are very noisy. Today I’m going to plant some wild flower seeds & hope the beagle doesn’t decide to dig them all up (she has form). Tea is cooling to a good temperature.

I misread this as snogs and then was confused that you found them in the freezer … I really should wake up properly before trying to read. Hope the snossiges were delicious

Ooh Charles Paris … I love a bit of Bill Nighy!

Thank you! I can’t function without mine.

Thank you ☺️ You’re looking mighty fine yourself.

It had a pleasing warmth 🥵

Was delicious and didn’t last long at all … no photo evidence 😂

Pork stew with a bit of chilli thrown in to warm it up, with some green beans and jacket potato

Bluebells in the foreground and standing proud in their midst a shrub with stems of small pink flowers. In the background a large tree, still with few leaves is framed against a blue sky.

In the foreground a gravel path with a sculpture of a riding saddle behind the sculpture a swathe of purple, pink and white tulips pop in a green background. The not yet dressed in leaves tree contrasts with a blue sky. A small wispy cloud and the trail from a plane flying over

Village is looking lovely today.

This is what I wake up thinking most mornings 😁

Ha! Exactly. Then I did some exercise so really I’ve had an exceptionally productive day.

What better way to spend a Sunday morning than cleaning out your shed and then doing a tip run. #SmallPleasures

I’m a dinosaur, I learnt to type on a manual typewriter 😂🦕

That’s always a real joy. Many, many years ago I typed a dissertation for someone on an electric typewriter and it was all about Schiaparelli - I’m not sure how many times it took for me to spell the name correctly, but it was a lot!

This is on my list to visit in the next few months. Glad to hear that it will be well worth the trip (most V&A exhibitions are generally excellent).

Haha excellent!
