Another early start today, with my beautiful girl off out on the early shift at work.

Sigyn the Inquisitive and Talisker the Bewildered came with me for a wander before I went out to work. Nice to get them both home again clean and dry for a change.

I have started on a bathroom re-fit today, so it has been a day of destruction - ripping out the bath, basin and loo and starting to tear down a stud wall. Basically making a hell of a mess. It will look better soon.

Back home and HV and I met up with Emmy and had a wander with the mutts through the woods.

I like that the gorse is in flower. It is one of those brilliantly beautiful yellows, and the flowers are delicate amongst the sharp thorns.
