Hello!

Flame meets a big rat!
Went to Sandwell Vally Country Park today. Had a walk in the woods where there are trails and sculptures that weren't there when we lived over that way 30+ years ago! Then we went round the farm and had lunch in the cafe (none of which was there then either!).
It was lovely to get out without any rain, although it was quite muddy. Saw herons nesting in the trees - I've never seen so many herons in one place before. Also saw a couple of parakeets in another tree. Also pigs, hens, a peacock and even an elephant in the farm! If you want to see more look here.
