Nevertheless I was grateful to get out in the fresh air, go for a short walk, meet people and do some necessary shopping. Now we are stocked up with basic food supplies again we don't have to go out if we get ice and snow. Take care Jo as I know you have to go out and about even in bad weather.Linda Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10634839688042592781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-3723341443001051182019-01-29T15:47:48.872+00:002019-01-29T15:47:48.872+00:00There's always lots of ducks at Fairburn, they...There's always lots of ducks at Fairburn, they're used to people feeding them and they're such greedy things.

Daniel's allergic to cats, we had one when he was born and he was fine with him but he became allergic after our cat died and when we got another one he ended up having asthma attacks so we had to take her back. He's been fine with Archie though.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-77217661536790251312019-01-29T08:33:00.355+00:002019-01-29T08:33:00.355+00:00It has bern cold but at least you managed to get o...It has bern cold but at least you managed to get out and about with Archie and no doubt it was great to get home again afterwards.Crimson Kettlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13701829170555353323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-38702771713953525582019-01-29T00:45:42.395+00:002019-01-29T00:45:42.395+00:00You've got to be brave and go with the flow of...You've got to be brave and go with the flow of the weather when dogs need walking.
