hares galore

Don't ask why - because I don't think you'd get a sensible answer - but I have developed a sort of fascination with hares ...

When we were on holiday in Yorkshire in March we saw a few, but never close enough to photograph. I did take this one photograph, but the hare was so far away ...



Since then I've been sketching and doodeling hares ...

a walk on the beach

Yesterday we drove to Dawlish Warren, a lovely seaside village on the South Devon coast. The main reason for the trip was for me to judge pets at a hamster show put on by the Southern Hamster Club. In the end there were several judges for the pets so I only had to judge the rabbit class, it was a pretty quick job really as there were only 3 rabbits taking part. I had a good time, and it was a chance to catch up with some people who I don't see very often.

While we were there we went for a walk along one of the beaches to look for shells - here are some pictures from our walk ...

welcome Long Tall Sally

This week we had someone new come to stay with us - introducing Long Tall Sally ...





She was made by the very talented Gretel, visit her blog Middle of Nowhere or visit her etsy shop - Red Flannel Elephant Designs.

Gretel - Thank you so much for making Sally, she is much loved here with us and I promise she will be well looked after. Thanks too for the lovely cards you sent with Sally X

hibernating?

Well, I guess that's one way to look at the fact that I haven't posted anything for a while, but to tell the truth ... I've been really busy with my day job and the few bits of freelancing I've been doing and I haven't really had much chance to think beyond that.

I shan't make any promises about regular blogging as everyone can see from my archive of posts that I've made such promises before and not kept to them - but how about 'I'll have a go'? ;)
