The birds were very noisy today. I topped up the feeders in the morning and think they may have been telling all their mates to ‘COME AND GET IT’! Whatever they were saying, it worked. Even though the day was mostly memorable for being miserable, grey and wet – the path is so wonderful in the rain – the birds were simply flooding in.

We were going to take the poodles for a walk somewhere nice but the weather was against us in a big way. After Mirinda finished working on her essay (her usual morning routine at the moment), the heavens simply drew a damp, grey cloud over everything. The poodles were not too pleased.

Before lunch, Mirinda had a great idea after a text exchange with Sophie and, as a result, we are off to the Isle of Wight tomorrow for a day trip. The weather is supposed to be much improved (which wouldn’t be hard). We are to drive over to Haslemere and take the train. Apparently Tom has started riding a bike. Not sure if he jousts while riding but suspect he does.
But, that’s for tomorrow. Today was nothing but the birds, rain and catching up on Christmas telly. before I go, here’s a couple of pigeons who spent quite a bit of time arguing over the rich pickings on one of the obelisks.
