My OH going to visit his family in Suffolk for a week next month, I am staying at home looking after my hairy mutt, (the dog, not the husband....though come to think of it.....lol). That means my house stays tidy for a whole week, without the hubby making a mess, And I get the bed all to myself, And I am not forced to watch endless repeats of Top Gear....And can even spend as much time as I like chatting to my mates on GoY....what perfect bliss!!! I am packing his bags even as I type! LOL!!

Don't we all wish for a Top-Gear-less atmosphere!

I have been known, in my weaker moments, to have enjoyed it, but only 'cos I'm forced to watch it, not through personal choice I hasten to add! Overgrown lads playing with cars.....

Lovely pics San,not easy to get good ones of butterflies and birds, I do enjoy the birds of prey events and duck are always good to make you smile

lol flori it is bliss having time out i agree, i do watch top gear but like your hubby baz watches and watches, that i cant be doing with lol,hope you enjoy your free week, one thing you wont get behind that week haha,
thanx pam, i love the bird to so beautifull and the ducks are so funny to watch ;o))

Lovely blog and photos, last time i was at Holker Hall there i went to flower show that was about 18mths ago.

thanx carole i really enjoyed it there, such abeautifull place ;o))

Sigh...I could do with a break to the Lakes! It's years since we were last there. Great photos, Sandra. :-))

P.S. I hate T** G***...:-(((

maybe you should go barbara, lots of places take pets we noticed, would do henry good to ;o))
wont tell baz you hate T** G*** lol

Can't until he's on medication, Sandra. If he had a fit in a strange place, think how dreadful it would be!

It's you-know-who on T** G*** I can't stand.

Which particular you-know-who? There are three, I seem to remember! Not the dreaded J***** C*******?

alot of peeps dont like jc, he`s such a know all and very rude to his peers,so im guessing thats who barbara means,i dont like his attitude to others either ;o( not good

No, not good :o(

Lovely pics of the birds, ducks and butterflies Sandra. There was a bird of prey on a nearby house aerial this morning I zoomed in with the camera but it is still to small to recognise. I am no fan of T..G... either ;-)

thanx richard glad you enjoyed the pics, if you open pics with windows gallery you can zoom it in again, look to top left and it says fix, click that then to the right click crop and just bring the box around pic in enough to get closer view, once thats done you click forward or back to next pic and it sets the crop to your pic in, hope thats easy enough to understand ;o))

Thanks for your help Sandra you are a star. I don't know where windows gallery is. I will have to look for it next time as I have deleted the photos now. They really were too small to magnify, I appreciate your help anyway Sandra.......thanks ;-

windows gallery opens when you look at your pics richard, good luck ;o))

Thanks Sandra ;-)
