Spot the Bunny!

Hiding somewhere in our garden is a little rabbit, answering (or not) to the name of Bertram. Usually he is known as Bertie but he has been a bad bunny and is now Bertram. He enjoyed his taste of freedom (and the taste of our plants) so much it took us over half an hour (with the help of Picklesdad, a long stick and a blanket) to catch him.

Here he is!

Happy Anniversary to........

Picklesdad and ME!



Anniversay flowers, from my lovely husband. Would share photo of the chocolates he bought but I have eaten those.

The answer was...........

The old eastbound carriageway of the A14, otherwise known as

The Haughley Bends,

It is now a footpath/cyclepath/ Bridleway. One half has been dug over for the horses, whilst the other is left tarmaced for pedestrians and cyclists.
The westbound carriage way is now the local two way road into Stowmarket from the surrounding villages.
It feels very strange to be walking where we have driven so many times and there are a couple of floral tributes in the trees to those who lost their lives on this once dangerous stretch of road.

Where are we????

Any ideas?

Goodbye Holly....

On Wednesday we had to make the very sad and difficult decision to have one of our beloved cats put down. Holly was Basil's sister and was nearly 15 years old.
She used to be a 'fat cat' but over the last few months her weight her reduced dramatically and for the last week we had been unable to tempt her to eat anything at all.
Our lives have been better for having her in them and she will be greatly missed by all the family.
Sleep well little cat.

From a 'friend' of mine!

Says it all really.

A visitor

Picklesdad thought it would be nice to attract some birds (feathered) into our garden, though why when we have 2 cats I am not sure!

Finally after several months of NOTHING, we have a feathery visitor....

Not quite the pretty, dainty little bird I was hoping for!
