Smile for the camera, Merlin!

I love that Shire horses have moustaches!
I went early to the Glendale Show, near Wooler, while it was still cool enough and fairly quiet.
The local heavy horse centre was represented, and Merlin - the gorgeous, gentle Merlin - was happy to pose.
I bent the budget on nice goody things, as usual, and managed to get Christmas presents for my daughters.
Back home just before 3, and a snooze on the sofa.
