I\u2019m off to meet a new friend today. We are going to Burton Dassett for walkies. I\u2019ve been there once before and really like it. There\u2019s sheep poo! Obviously there are sheep as well, but I\u2019m more interested in what they\u2019ve left behind. I\u2019m meeting a girl called Freya who\u2019s only nine months old so may be very full of energy. She moved here from Germany earlier in the year. Shadow and Ari say they wish they were coming, but neither of them are really much good at walking these days, so there really isn\u2019t any point. I\u2019ve promised to tell them about it when I get back and of course I know they will be giving me a good sniff to find out the details I\u2019ve left out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For emergencies during our walking challenge, Mum has measured our back garden. In the event of not going out, we will do enough circuits of the garden to keep our total walking distance up. I think that\u2019s for the days she doesn\u2019t feel like changing out of her pyjamas, but don\u2019t tell her I said that. At least it is fewer circuits than it used to be at our old house. Walking around the garden there felt very tedious after a while, at least to me. Mum has already realised that if we do use the garden circuit I may need my lead on so I don\u2019t just find an apple to enjoy eating while I watch her going round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The orchard<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s weird, I can\u2019t believe how much lighter the orchard seems now they have pruned the wild plum trees. It\u2019s funny, it has made it quite different down there. On the downside it is harder to hide from Mum, but we don\u2019t really want to do that very often, so it\u2019s not a big deal. Mum is going to trim the hedges down there too now, so it will be even tidier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
