We’ve had the best day ever – baking, playing Top Trumps, colouring in, walking in the woods and making up stories.

1 Friends have recently adopted a wonderful dog whose owner is off to Australia so couldn’t keep him. He’s a Lurcher and is one of the sweetest and best behaved dogs I have ever met. I’m not really a dog lover, having been seriously frightened as a child, but Duke is just delightful!

2 Our friends have a delightful cottage just by Tehidy Woods and we spent a lovely sunny afternoon walking and talking our way through the woods up to the coast and round again. Click on any photo for an enlargement.
3 The sea was many beautiful hues of blue in the sunshine.

All in all, it was a beautiful day in every way: sunshine, wonderful natural beauty, exercise and being with good friends – what more could one ask? And, I almost forgot, a delicious Cornish cream tea before our walk and a fabulous meal afterwards!

3 I have finished the tiny little trousers for Grand-baby B – they are one of the most pleasing little things I have made. They are called Kanoko pants because “Kanoko” is from Japanese term “Kanoko-ami” which means “seed(moss) stitches” and I have to thank Harumidori designs for the delightful and very easy pattern.
