On the dog walk I had for a change a moderation of success in that I could actually get lower to focus on an insect rather than having the camera ripped from my vision by Little One. On getting home she positively threw herself into the pond and just sat there - see Extra - I bet that was lovely!!

There were a few dragons in the hedgerows but I had no chance with a puppy in tow.

Poppy this morning went to the dog groomers and it was a long haul explaining the things she had wrong with her and so therefore they couldn't touch 'that spot'! I buoyed her up on painkillers just in case.

Our small lane is fast getting to be more like an A road with the amount of traffic hurtling down - so very dangerous when you are out on it now. 

I've spent the majority of my day in the office doing the accounts and luckily Millie hunkered down for a bit.
