All Shook Up!

Beautiful day today. After planting the last of my 'seedlings' in the garden and a glass of lemonade (it was so hot in the sun!) we set off on the afternoon walk. I remarked at one point that there was a terrible smell, must have just passed a rotting carcass, we thought. Bracken on the other hand didn't pass whatever it was without first rolling in it. (She's been talking to Molly Collie!)
The sight and smell was quite disgusting by the time we reached home. Out came the bucket and shampoo and I took loads of pictures of the soaping up and rinsing process. All finished, she ran round the garden like a lunatic and rubbing up against anything she could find. Then she decided to roll against the long grass at the edge of the pond. I could see what was coming but wasn't fast enough to catch the action as she rolled into the water. Here she is newly climbed out and now probably smelling of pondweed!
