Took the dog for a long walk up to the golf course this morning. It was lovely and sunny but with a cold wind. The path looked so autumnal and pretty I took a photo.

I think I'll try pegging out tomorrow, @Sun_Addict. Cold wind but sunny & bright. Anything which reduces paying for heated airer use is worth a go. Am determined to have a rebate or monthly energy payment reduction next quarter.

No chance of pegging the washing out for us today. Got back home too late.
Dryer has been busy. Done a load of bedding and there is a load in the machine now.4 -
That 'thing' whatever it is is a blooming disgrace.
That should not be allowed.
Sorry to hear about your ankle

DD has now renamed the kitten Luna. To be honest it suits her better than Poppy. Have come across quite a few dogs called Luna on the park and they are always naughty.Have let the dog have a good sniff of the kitten tonight, it had to be done as she was so curious. The kitten grumbled though.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5

The kitten sitting next to my wine advent calendar. The dog can’t take her eyes off her but they need to get used to each other.
