It's cold out mum

Lovely pic :o)

Looks like an ad for british gas lol.

He he he lol such comedy here beat the master to the fire. I agree Aster it would.

LOL....if they got any closer they'd be sitting in it. Great photo.

Oh, that's beautiful !
Very, very sweet :-)))))

That made me chuckle I've never seen the like how delightful they look.

Thanks all, I always wanted to catch them like this, but every time I went to fetch the camera they would either follow me or look round and come to me, thinking no doubt it was food!

Of course Bornagain a mans best friend is his dog as they say, you get to a mans heart through his stomack food lol now you know why a mans best friend is his dog he he ha ha.

What a super Photo..gone on to my favourites

Thanks Deida:-) How true Morgana :-)

Thanks Dotty, they're what my husband calls nesh:-)

Thanks Suey:-)

Bornagain have not heard that one before.

Means namby pamby, opposite of rufty tufty:-)

See your JR's love the fire too then Bornagain !

Yes Cg, they couldn't get any closer without burning and Meg (roughcoat) leans affectionately into poor Rosie and pushes her slowly to the side:-)

Have heard of namby pamby and rufty tufty, nesh is a new one, thought I knew all the West Mids expressions, being an ex W.M.

It's northern I think Dotty, he's from Yorkshire:-)

Can I join them? I love fireplaces:)
I thought I would answer your question showing you pictures with exochorda in different seasons - I don't have it in autumn - it looks like the best show is in the gardens when I have my half term:) I think it looks nice in winter - when I wil be back to college in January I will try to take another photo:)

Thanks Okasia, I look forward to that:-) and of course you can join them, although once the licking starts you might regret it:-)

oh, licking is not problem at all:) I am used to:) haha

:-)

Have had my rescue dog Raffles since May 09,and found we had to fight to get to the fireside this winter, he's a real hearth dog too, so had to chuckle at your photo!

Maybe jrs are all the same...or is it just rescue dogs after spending time in a concrete kennel? :-)

What a great photo :o)

Thanks Dylandog:-)

we always say nesh in stoke on trent,Bornagain.

And we did in Liverpool Suey :-)

Don't know how I came to miss this!!! They are sooo into this fire lol!
