I used to do thousands of business miles a year but I simply couldn't face it now. I don't like night driving at all. <br />The pheasant picture is stunning!

My SIL has one that comes to the back door of her cottage, she pre warns us of this when we go to stay. It'll know when you're in the kitchen and goes up to the back door to ask for food! He likes to do it early in the morning, which is so annoying! <br /><br />Keeping Col in my thoughts, I hope the awful feeling passes quickly. And I feel for you having to travel right now, the weather is very unpredictable and the wind and rain have been so scary at times.<br />xSadiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09446043225149493179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-76524427878340297042017-12-09T15:57:24.473+00:002017-12-09T15:57:24.473+00:00I hope your husband starts to feel on a bit more o...I hope your husband starts to feel on a bit more of an even keel soon.<br />ArilxArilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07447764056767139963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-66969841598077020642017-12-09T08:01:41.858+00:002017-12-09T08:01:41.858+00:00Both of your pictures are amazing.
