I think I have managed to sell our horse-walker, a large round metal and rubber monstrosity, on Ebay. How about that?! The great thing is, if the guy is true to his word and comes and collects it early next week, a space will have been cleared for me to start my gardening leave properly and create a vegetable plot. Too exciting for words.
When I set off at 10am to take Mum to Peterborough station for her train north there was a plumber, electrician, builder and gardener all parked at our house. There is a disconcerting side to gardening leave. What are all these men doing for Sophie?? Ignorance is bliss.
I have hatched a plan to drive over to Snowdon one of these days and run up to the top. When to fit it in though? So much to do. Anyway that was the incentive needed to drag myself out for a 9 mile run this afternoon followed by a 45 min dog walk. Twiggie caught a squirrel. I took a photo of the two of them and emailed it to Bob. He'll be thrilled.
If ever I wanted it to bucket with rain it is tonight. Kings College School fireworks evening. Next to Halloween close to being my worst evening of the year. Oooooh, aaaaaah and sugar crazed children running around in the dark screaming.
Tomorrow I'm off shooting so we will see if my trips to the clay pigeon centre at Lakenheath have paid off. I think I must admit to being not entirely sure that they have done much good really.
