Home again.

Furry Mama, Calum and Minty Mutt went for a lovely walk in Lincoln this morning with their friend Dan and his daughter. It was a bit of a leap of faith, as Dan had no idea whether they would have to turn around and go back the way they had come, or whether a left turn would materialise and allow them to get back to the house, without walking miles. As they were following a river on their right, with a stream/ditch on their other side, it was touch and go!

But Clever Bird insisted that they kept going, rather than turning around and repeating a long route. Baggy hadn't the energy to carry Creative Clara's camera, having had pretty much zero sleep - this time due to Baggy's heart doing the whole boom, boomedy, boom, boomedy, booming thing, for hours! As Calum had been awake for over twenty-four hours, he didn't stir, in spite of Baggy literally throwing herself about to try to stop the erratic booming. It was making her breathless and dizzy and the more that Freda Fretter worried about it, the worse her breathlessness and the boomedy, booming got. So, Baggy had maybe two hours sleep - another thing that Baggy will have to re-discuss with the Doctor on Monday (although, thankfully this is the first time that it's happened in a few weeks). So, as a result, Calum was in charge of the camera. They had company for quite a few parts of the walk.

Calum got some shots that Creative Clara would have been quite chuffed with.

Fortunately, Clever Bird insisting that they went "just a little bit further", paid off. There was a left turn shortly after their wander with the ducks, and a cappuccino shop awaited! Well done Clever Bird (for once). Of course Calum got carried away and bought cream slices all round and Baggy had to eat it.

They drove home this afternoon via the scenic route along country roads, rather than along the main major roads that they'd gone up on. It took longer but was a much more pleasant journey. Hinge and Bracket were totally over excited to see Furry Mama - mainly to get fed packet food rather than the dried stuff, but at least they were pleased to see her!

The Domestic Goddess just rustled up a chilli con carnie. Even Hormonal Hannah is feeling chilled.....
