Sniffing the air

A quick shop this morning followed by another walk around the woods, which is so essential at this time of the year when everything is growing so quickly and the birds are fast disappearing behind the foliage.

Milly, a local Dalmatian crept up on me whilst I was down on my haunches photographing insects and her owner was hanging around quietly in the background.  She'd been taking pictures of the bluebells too and we had quite a chat about how much we love the wood and how we rarely meet anyone.   Not Milly obviously, she can't talk like MollyCollie.

The house is even more in turmoil as JJ's office is now out of action as well as the lounge and dining room, but I think the decorator will finish tomorrow and then we can start getting the house back to some semblance of order.
