It took a fair bit of cajoling to get them all out for an early (ish) morning walk but it was worth it ….along the river…great views, fly fishing, stone skimming, big water…all in the morning sun. On days like this, it’s beautiful up north.

This afternoon was spent in the garden with the cousins and the serious business of organising Bin Bag’s Birthday Bash. After much vino blanco and discussions detailing table decorations, bunting and caterers it was decided we should round things off with a curry.
