I took Rick out for a stroll around the village this afternoon; Paul usually
does the later walk but we swapped today as he has got a virtual cycle race
this afternoon.
 
The sky looked a bit threatening in the distance but we had blue sky and
sunshine to accompany our walk.  The
village was very quiet and Rick and I had the lanes to ourselves.  He totally ignored the sheep in the field, I
don’t think he realises that he is a sheep dog.
 
There was no activity at the farm today, they have been very busy all week
cutting and harvesting the maize fields. 
When I got home I fetched the washing in from the garden that I had hung out
to dry just after breakfast.  I don’t
know why I bother at this time of year, it felt just as damp as when I put it
out.  It is now elegantly draped over the horse in the garden room.
