Meet Bilbo Baggins!!!

Well as planned I went to Saltaire today - always a pleasure though there wasn't much going on! But there was adorable Bilbo Baggins there - he's a working horse and pulls narrowboats - pulling one from Leeds all the way to Liverpool a couple of years ago. He looked in fine fettle and he was with his owners, who were dressed in traditional Yorkshire Folk outfits - they're all in the pics here. Fascinating stuff I thought. They were doing a display and talk all about the working horses on the canals but I'd arrived far to early to see it - pants!!! Fascinating stuff in my book!
I also absorbed the pleasurable sight of the bluebell woods - oh how lovely - how can they not put a smile on your face!! Funnily enough though daughter Jess took Chino for a walk up to St Ives, I said to her were the bluebells out and looking gorgeous - she said she didn't notice …… WHAT!!!!! :)))
