I stood on the dipping platform at Priory for only a couple of minutes and a couple of swans came swimming straight up. This one posed very nicely for me and then all the ducks came flying in. I only had my bridge camera today as I was on my way to do the weekly shop and I tend not to put my DSLR in the car because the camera bag takes up more room and I don't want to risk knocking it about too much with all the shopping. I know it's all padded but I do tend to treat it with kid gloves!
I got all excited when I opened a parcel tonight as I thought it was some skincare products I had ordered from the internet. When I opened the box, I got a great surprise because it was Yakov (my meerkat toy) that was my reward for getting a new credit card from Compare the Meerkat (oh I mean Compare the Market.com). Yakov can sit on the window sill at work by my desk and be company for Maia. You would think I'd just won the lottery when I whooped for joy! How sad is that? And Steve wasn't there to see it as he was out. He thinks I'm mad and he's probably right but it's better to be mad and happy than be sane and sad!
