I'm not jealous!

My little sister, hubbie and Aila the dog have just moved into a new bungalow in the country, so Mum and I paid them a visit.

We also wanted to deliver a rather large rabbit hutch, which Mum got from a neighbour, to my niece who lives nearby with her partner and 4 girls - the hutch is for the oldest who wants to buy a rabbit with her birthday money. That was an interesting start to the day in itself, as we tried to get the hutch into my 2 month old golf. Some other neighbours tried to help - all dressed up in their Sunday best for church - but eventually had to go on their way. In the end I found a saw and chopped the legs down to get it in!

Having successfully delivered the thing to a family of highly excited girls, dog, parrot, fish etc. etc. (you have to award Dad a medal for his tolerance!), we went back to my sister's and had a relaxing lunch on their sun drenched patio watching Aila work her way through a bone, and the birds enjoying the seed on the rather nice bird table they had inherited surround by some old fashioned cottage garden plant like these hollyhocks
