Snakes and Pussies

It was solong

Whilst working amongst our compost containers I lifted a plastic lid that had been lying on the ground for some time. Underneath was the most beautiful slow worm. This interesting creature, which fortunately does not bite, had then climbed into another lid in which I was able to photo. Shortly before, Gill had lifted the lid on one of the compost containers, and was busily being stared at by a cute little mouse - how interesting and lively our gardens can be.

What a nice pussy

Being invited round to Karen's for dinner on Saturday night was a great opportunity to view her new kittens - four new British Short Hair - very cute! Gill and I were most impressed and spent ages going - oooooohhhhhhh!!!! Meanwhile viewing the kittens resulted in Karen's pasta overcooking - mind meal was lovely!
