Feeding the Ducks.

Half way home, and we're staying with Mrs TD's sister for a few days and, this morning, while we were helping to baby-sit young Alfie we went to feed the ducks at The Mere; they didn't seem to be interested in white bread - but then I can understand that.

The poor weather of the morning became appalling in the afternoon so we took Alfie and his cousin for a walk in the pouring rain - and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves; shepherding pretty snails seemed to be the most popular activity.
