NOT The New Doctor....

This tree is 'regenerating' nonetheless - just a few weeks ago the main trunk was felled to make way for a re-routed power line.  Amazing that life struggles on after such a brutal act...

Finlay seemed a little easier today - but I didn't over exert him on our walk this morning.

Mrs madwill and I went to Northallerton to meet up with her mother and sister - I spent most of my time standing around outside clothes shops - but I did come home with a new chopping board and a new set of baking trays - oh and a new peg bag! Aren't I a lucky boy....can't wait to try them out...

I also bought Finlay a new squeaky toy - which he has been throwing around the garden ... I think he must be feeling better!
