Good Friday

One of the girls in this photo was petrified of dogs about one hour before this photo was taken. She was clinging to her mum crying her heart out. She wouldnt stand on the floor and screamed when Stanley raced past her. Within thirty minutes of being with our soft dogs she was stroking Casper and taking the ball out of Stanley's mouth. And now she wants a dog.......that's what you call the Cocker Spaniel effect!

I finished work at 1 and we headed to the local pub to meet a large group of friends. Before we knew it, it was 6 and Simon had invited those remaining back to ours. 10 adults and 6 kids - the little girls chased the dogs and the little boys played pool in the cellar. The big girls all stood chatting, putting the world to rights and the big boys played poker. Everyone has just left, the dogs are pooped and we have just tidied up.

A fun impromptu day - the best kind :)
