Pooh Sticks

"Poohsticks is a sport first mentioned in The House at Pooh Corner, a Winnie-the-Pooh book by A. A. Milne. It is a simple sport which may be played on any bridge over running water; each player drops a stick on the upstream side of a bridge and the one whose stick first appears on the downstream side is the winner. The annual World Poohsticks Championships have been held at Day's Lock on the River Thames in the UK, since 1984."

Another glorious day. Took bread over to the lake at Strichen to feed the ducks. Amelie had found a tooter in the toys brought up by Catherine and Izzy and she summoned the ducks with it a la Dr. Doolittle. Then she played pooh sticks with her mum. She saw the Gruffalo many times in the woods but said he wouldn't eat her because her blood was orange!?
