Limpy in the wet garden

Limpy popped round for breakfast after the early morning heavy rain. She didn't get much - a bit of blue cheese which she promptly buried and wee'ed on.

How do Sundays disappear so quickly. Didn't get up too early - that didn't help but needed a bit of a rest after yesterday's exertions. Breakfast, cycle to the shops, cooking up a big River Cottage soup and it was already gone 3.

Late silly lunch of crumpets and Christmas cake talking about leave dates before I did some photo processing and uploading. Baked potatoes for supper.

Have managed to keep the worries at bay - but feel them encroaching what with the plumber due to start Tuesday.

Limpy has a bad leg hence her name. It's been like that for over a year so she's obviously doing OK with it. We knew her mother who would visit the garden and was the loveliest most well behaved fox ever, no digging up anything, no pooing or weeing. She had at least 2 cubs - this one and Fernanda who is the one that wees on absolutely everything and is just a bit of a thick menace. Limpy is much brighter and with it. They must be a good 3 years old now.

@boxplayer That's amazing, mum taught her cubs that you guys are friends!

It is fascinating how wild life look for humans in search of help... If they feel in danger.
