Easter

Easter is proving to be a quiet one for us, just pottering about, Dave is boarding the loft, something that he has been planning on doing for a while, at last he's found the time. It was bright but cold this morning we have even had a little bit of snow! Thankfully it was after we had been for a long walk with Betsy, she had  a run about with one of her friends a Toy Manchester Terrier called Rambo,  an odd name I think for such a little dog. They both chased about the field until Rambo needed to leave we then put Betsy on her lead and headed to  Berwick Ponds. There was lots of bird activity today the swans were very active chasing off the geese I managed to get a couple of action shots. Swans certainly look scary when they open their wings fully I was so glad that Betsy was on her lead and the swan didn't come onto the bank where we were standing.

It was then time for home, Betsy fell asleep after her exhausting walk and after lunch I made and decorated chocolate cake as a contribution to tomorrows lunch. Then it was back to the stitching.......

  1. Perhaps Rambo's owner secretly wanted a Rottweiler!
    Happy Easter Miriam, enjoy your lunch tomorrow!

  3. Quiet here too this year. Going to make a cake tomorrow, trouble is I won't be able to help eating it too! Happy Easter and stitching time. X

  4. You are a very busy lady Miriam. I used to bake all my own bread at one time, but these days I do everything the easy way if possible. The photos of the swans are great.
