Not in a Pear Tree

I had to wait in this morning as we were expecting a new mattress which did eventually arrive.  The delivery men did a grand job, only knocking one picture off the wall in manipulating the mattress upstairs.  I spent the morning making an aubergine and cauliflower curry. 

After lunch we went to Hilliers.  The plan was to visit the bird hide after looking at the gardens but the hide was full so we retired to their cafe for a coffee.  Whilst there fellow blipper Technophobe stopped for a chat before going into the shop.  We tried the hide again and found it empty this time so had a little while watching the birds.  This included the partridge featured in today's blip.
