Horsey, horsey ......

We had a bit of fun with Looby doo this afternoon. Her mum and dad take it in turns to "visit" the appropriate in - laws with a view to giving the other a break at home.  

Walked the dog at lunchtime while it was till bright and sunny.  It was glorious weather and actually some warmth in the sun.  A small glimpse of Spring.  We decided to take our tree down as it was dropping so badly and giving us allergies.  This took a couple of hours.  Two sessions to unclog the hoover and 2 hoover bags were used plus a bag of manually collected pine needles.  This is probably the first time I have taken the decorations down before twelfth night so fingers crossed we don't have an unlucky year!
