A frozen fishy on a little dishy.

A family walk to Dragon Forest led to much ice and plenty if slipping. Pip spotted little fish frozen in the ice of the pond; like a scene from Ice Age.

So we cracked the ice and took out the fish to investigate their frozen little bodies and bulgy white eyes. What a shame and crazy to think it was cold enough in the pond to freeze them.

The walk ended with Pip re-enacting a scene from a 70's public information film about the dangers of walking on thin ice!

One minute she was walking happily over the marshes, the next she disappeared into an frozen puddle that had thinner ice and was far deeper than she expected. A massive huff followed by a soggy strop off put the icing firmly on the cake.


If only we'd videoed it!
