donkeys

I walked up to Dunscore and back today for Roy's funeral. The church was packed. Roy was a farmer and knew everything about the history of Dunscore; he was one of the founders of the Dunscore ChurchHeritage Centre. His daughter read a very moving piece which she had written, about how he would always be a part of the local landscape which he had worked in and which he loved, and in which his family still farms. 

The day turned drizzly later on, so I was glad that I had spent time out of doors. I've spent this afternoon writing letters and doing inside stuff and I'll soon be off to make the tea :-)

The donkeys in my blip are fortunate to live at Farmersfield Rest Home for Elderly Donkeys (FRED).
