Be still my beating 'hart'...

I've always wanted a stag in my journal... and it's only taken me 779 days to get one... yay... what a treat!
A visit to Ripley Castle ... why-ever haven't I been before???!!!  Gardens and grounds are free until the 1st March... and who knew there was a deer park there!  
The weather was foul, you can just about see the raindrops in my pic but it didn't hinder the pleasure of seeing these gorgeous creatures... and the satisfaction of a tick to your blip list:))
