Back from a post birthday visit with mum – 94, bless her

There and back, wherever a roundabout was close to an open petrol station the traffic was backed up to a standstill. I found some petrol as I neared the Black Cat Roundabout

It reminded me of the 1974 oil crisis when, as a newly qualified driver I queued for petrol to fill my old banger. Back to the bad old days
There are now four little chickies and mum is still sitting on some warm eggs
This yellow chick is already mimicking mum and pecking at food
We were pleased to spend just a few precious minutes chatting with friend Kate and her delightful dog, Zola. We all have so many autumn garden tasks that sitting for more than 5 minutes makes all of us feel guilty!
