Retirement Day

Anybody recognise this young lady from this angle?

Today we spent a mainly fantastic morning (see below) in her old village, starting at The Green near the Duck Pond.

This clutch of ducks strolled around the green then crossed the road and slid into the pond.

Enthusiatic throwing and chasing of bread followed, with a little bit of sampling from little one, although she was very keen for The Gold One to get fed.

Although today is my 65th birthday the title refers to my camera not to me. Seconds after this shot the metal eye to which the wrist strap was attached failed. The camera has survived falls before but sadly not this one. Exactly five years of fabulous and faithful service - it was a 60th birthday present, my passport into the digital age.
