A Reading Holiday

It's getting towards bed time and I'm a bit too lazy to write a good post but I also don't want to stop blogging completely so I'll post some photos from our "reading weekend"

I'm distractible, very distractible, but I like to think of myself as a reader so I thought that if I went away somewhere I might read a book. Briony said she'd love to come with me.

When we told Liam this plan he guffawed with laughter. You two? go away for a weekend and read?

Well, he was right. I didn't take my book out of my bag.

The cabin we stayed in was on a property where a lot of  "critters" are kept as pets. We fed the Clydesdales and the donkey, watched the geese run about, heard all about the miniature steers, watched the camels and met the resident doggo.

How was I going to read with such a variety of adorable characters?

We also moseyed around the village of Kurrajong, watched a movie and chatted listened to our host, JOhn who was quite eccentric and quite the raconteur. We also enjoyed a few episodes of "Goggle box" which we used to watch together in less busy times. Watching Goggle box was a nice nostalgia trip 

I'm not sure if this was Heckle or Jekyll. It was one of them.

Pebbles was abused earlier in life and doesn't usually let anyone near her. 

We must have passed her test.

Can birds murmurate on foot or only on the wing? 

Briony took all the good photos and Pebbles was her favourite so we have a few photos of the old girl.

John said that if we came back, he'd take us out on a sulky pulled by the Clydesdales. It's very tempting.
