Biscuit has started a thick winter coat already,
so likes the shade.
While the other horses enjoy a little late winter sun.

Bath Chronicle
The new weekly Bath Chronicle was launched today.
With over 250 pages it dwarfed my newsagent this morning.
This is Jill Turner from Adams Apple, at this stage she hadn’t put the property supplements in.

Bath Chronicle goes weekly
I was one of the fifteen staff to go.
It’s a strange feeling volunteering to leave a job after 20 years, but I think I made the right decision as I have seen the best years of the Chronicle as a daily.
And I hope the new 250-page weekly will be a great success, but I would have missed the immediacy that a daily paper brings.
Editor Sam Holliday presents me with my traditional front page, slightly different from the usual one as I shared it with 14 other staff members.
Two of my fellow escapees, reporters Laura Matless and Polly March say goodbye, I think they just wanted the fame of getting on the Farr Family Blog Really.

With our granddaughter Lottie looking this good at two,
I think she’s going to grow up a Glamorous girl!

Stupid Dog
Back on-line at last, in our house we have two dogs, Storm sitting left is a bit slow old and careful (like Wendy).
The other is Paddy immature, impulsive and stupid (like Sam).
Today’s picture shows Paddy throwing himself into a brick wall as he tries to catch a wasp in his mouth!

Wendy looking better
Wendy taken this week after we washed her hair for the send time in two weeks. Because of her detached retina she can’t bend over or get her eye wet.
So I’ve have been washing her hair with her sitting upright on a plastic garden chair under the shower with her eyes covered.
Her sight is getting better every day.

End of Summer Sun
The roads around our village seem full
of giant combine harvesters,
as the farmers make the most of
the last of summer sun.

Wasps
I suppose it’s caused by the strange summer, but I don’t think I’ve seen a wasp yet.
This one popped in for a munch on my jam sandwich a few years ago.

Union Jack Balloon
Hot-air balloons are a common sight around
But I don’t think it’s the one that James Bond used in Octopussy
