Happy New Year to one and all!

Wishing you love, peace, happiness and health in 2008!

I managed a very short walk round the village today and now I’m home ready for more napping.

The village green was empty apart from a boy and his day playing with a remote control car.

It looks like someone has cut back the trees in Turner’s Orchard for winter.

There is someone who has a miniature train track at the bottom of their garden. It would seem that the train isn’t running today.

It was nice to find the church open so I could stop for a sit down before we came home again.

We even met a new friend. I called him Jolly Roger because he marched up to us and meowed loudly demanding to be stroked and when I sat on the bench, he climbed up and sat on my shoulder like a parrot. pao has some photos of us – if he puts them up, concentrate on the cat; I look and feel dreadful. In many ways, he reminded me of Lucy because he had similar soft thick fur and demanded our affection like she did. Thankfully she’d never wanted to climb up onto our shoulders though.

Have a wonderful 2008!
