Chocolate box image!  I always start the year thinking about the possibilities for next year's calendar, and then never manage to see it through.  And so the process starts again. 

The reservoir today was full of families exercising their cabin fever children.  The amount of wet wellies and saggy bottoms, skew whiff hats and snotty noses was joyous.  V and I were so happy not to have our snotty nosed young lads with us, but we cherished the memories of them lapping at our heels like puppy dogs.

Boys and their mothers.  Such a fabulous combination of mutual adoration.
