Oh Buoy!

Or The Feardie Beardie! During the gales this buoy became detached from its moorings in the bay and was washed up further along the bay. Yesterday a tractor hauled it ashore here in the village, but when we went for a walk today it came as rather a shock to poor Ollie! Eventually he relaxed enough to have a good sniff at it and then rather contemptuously pee'd, not actually on it, but close enough!

Swimming first thing this morning and then cut the back grass this afternoon, hopefully for the last time this year. Flat calm, a lovely day with bright sunshine. Such a contrast to the last few days . . .
