Sunday Walks

We were doubtful that we would get a Sunday Walk today, as we've had very stormy weather over the last 24 hours.  We were treated to an incredible thunder and lightning storm yesterday evening with rain that soaked you in seconds.  The poor hens were looking very miserable, so I tried to ease their  […]

Sunday Winter Walk

This morning dawned bright and sunny, so we took advantage of the weather and set off for a Sunday Walk.  The heavy snow from the last couple of days has begun to melt, but there was evidence from previous walks in the snow:Lexie and Peggy were thrilled to be out in the hills again and while Lexie  […]

The Deer Hunter

Summer is always a busy time for us, but now that Autumn is well and truly here we're trying to get back into the routine of Sunday Walks.  This morning dawned frosty and cold, but bright and sunny, so before the clouds decided to spoil the sky we set off for a walk.The sun was pretty low in the  […]

Sunday Walks

Finally we have had a Sunday free of meetings and commitments, and we were able to set off on a good, long Sunday Walk.   The weather was slightly against us, so with five layers on including waterproofs, we set off.  Although spring is clearly on the way, with small hints of green vegetation  […]

Sunday Walks

I'm sorry - the blog has been a little dull of late.  But to be honest, we've both been so busy working on different projects that we have had very little photo opportunities or time to do bloggable things.  But today we set off for our first Sunday Walk together in absolute ages.  Of course, it was  […]

Sunday Walks

Finally we had a reasonable Sunday Walk today, although the dogs and I had to go on our own as Stevan was tied up in meetings.   At the moment it's a case of looking forward to "life after the Mission plan".  You may recall that Stevan has been involved in a local project which involves  […]

Sunday Walks

Once again our Sunday walk was a little curtailed.  We did have good intentions (I even pocketed the small boxes of fruit juice and chocolate bars!), but the type of snow that we have makes it impossible for the dogs.  We'd only gone half way up the hill behind our house before Peggy was once again  […]

Sunday Walks

I've decided to add a new feature -  Sunday Walks.  We try and take a Sunday Walk every week, and we try and make it quite a long walk so the dogs (and us!) get a good stretching of the legs and we can justify a breakfast of bacon and egg (that's for us, not the dogs!).  Recently the weeks have been  […]

Sunday Walk

We're starting to see the end of the ice that has been surrounding our home since the week before Christmas.  It has been an astonishingly sustained period of frozen ground, snow and ice.  Because we live so close to the sea we usually expect any snow to disappear within 2 to 3 days, but this  […]
