NICE WEATHER FOR DUCKS

Today was the village duck race and we were thankful for the rain this week, otherwise they would have all refused at the first sandbank. The going was wet which suited Number 31, a strong leader from the off and, despite a few knocks and bumps, bounced to the finishing line at the stepping stones in record time. This year's "owner" of the winning duck pocketed £150 for their £1 stake, and there were cash prizes for 2nd, 3rd and 4th as well. The Golden Retriever was allowed in to round up the tailenders once the successful ducks were safely in the winner's enclosure.

Thank you kaybee who gave me instructions for putting the photos together. The race finished two hours ago but I'm sure I'll be quicker next time! And yes, I have cleaned the rain spots off my lens now!
