Four friends came over today and we did a 9.5 mile walk, which was just perfect in the sunshine - I didn't wear gloves!!  I took this as a quick snap, and was going to blip the alpaca, but the beach was so beautiful I have put the alpaca as an extra.

The only downside today, apart from the continuing sore throat, was that the water, which has been erratic for the past few days dried up completely just before I left home for our walk...it transpires that the problem isn't with the mains piping, but is pipes under fields to my house it is for me to fix, not the water company.
