It's always the same

With just two sleeps before we go away, out come the scissors and brushes because Mum says we have to 'look smart' on holiday.  I don't know why but I think it is because she's afraid we will look scruffy if we meet any other Welshies which we often do.

Hey ho, the positive is it's only 2 sleeps to go!!

Going away?

Mum says we are gong away for a few days next week with Aunty Debbie. 

This is the first I've heard of it, but she says there are only 4 sleeps before we leave so I am go to spend today getting her organised to be sure we have all our important stuff packed like food, beds, biscuits, leads, treats, towels, treats  ... food.  Have I missed anything?

Today's walk

Today we went to the Idle Valley Nature Reserve which is quite near us.  We only did the Lakeside walk today which is about 2 miles - last time we came I think we took a wrong turn and went right out into the country for what seemed like miles!

There was lots to see and sniff out - you know the usual stuff like rabbits and birds, ducks etc.

On the way home we also passed another place called Daneshill Lakes Nature Reserve.  We didn't stop for a walk to day but did see this sign

Burghley House

Mum went to Burghley with Toria on Tuesday.  She has been loads of times before with us but never around the house and gardens.

They went into the Surprise Garden and also the Sculpture Garden and got these shots with her phone.  Now Dad wants to go with his whizzy camera!

This is Toria at the 'Tree with Mirrors'.

A wheel-type thingy from the front and  the side.  Strange?

 

 

Finally, a couple of those perspective ones ..
