Thistle Do . . . . !

Lots of these about at the moment. When you look at them closely, they are amazing.

Ollie and I had a good walk up on the cliffs and then along the beach this morning, and then another walk with my sister and her two dogs this afternoon. This evening some form of madness came upon me and I decided to take Patience for a spin! First time I've been on her this year and I got carried away and did an 8 mile circuit! I have been meaning to go out for weeks, but always ended up taking Ollie for a walk instead. Unfortunately dog walking and cycling don't mix but it was such good fun that I'm going to keep at it and try to cycle in the evenings, after he's had his walk. There'll be no stopping me now!
