What's that electrical thing with wires coming out of it Roger? And why have you got 2 clocks? And why are you up so goddamn early!

Does the RSPC know you trim your Springer with a Flymo? Mine would never sit still long enough.

He never does anything I tell him to do, he's a real mummy's boy.

We've had almost perfect weather here today, could have done with a few fluffy white clouds, but perfect for a trip to the woods as other people have done. The grass will have to wait for another day

Hi Aliera - glad to see you have a new cat. It's a great shot of young Jack - he looks a bit bemused - maybe not properly awake yet?

......just saw *your* post and was about to comment.......:)
I love your shot - I hope you'll be glad to know that whenever I have a successful flower 'experiment' going I think of you......
(I have been meaning to post a picture of my *two* tulips for ages... What's left from last year's bulbs, ie: what the blasted squirrels didn't dig out).

Young Jack wasn't awake really - he ignored his breakfast in order to investigate my coffee.......
And yes, he's a 'new' cat - courtesy of Engrose of this parish.......

Hmmmm, he's named Jack, and he's obsessed with coffee - sounds familiar, but I can't quite put my finger on it. ;-)

Oh, we have sheep in Dorset too - don't worry. In fact if I turn my head I can see a field full of them over the road. They may safely graze, I promise you. :-)
