A Churchillian air.


Bob leaps into the back of the car. This morning he's accompanied by a piece of carrot which gives him something of a Churchillian air.

His sister is busily guarding the house against the Collar Doves that are nesting in the tree by the front door and who have the the audacity to walk across the lawn.

The piglets have escaped from their pen. They race along the lane. There may be eight of them, maybe more. Difficult to say they're moving so quickly. Some black, some grey, some speckled. Tiny and plump. This band of freedom loving renegades make a happy squealing detour through the wheat field and are gone before I can get the i-Phone out. 

Sunshine, piglets and PONs. Not a bad start to a day.

Well, you just helped me make the shift from night to day with a smile on my face, thank you Bob. Angus, some quick-draw practice required please - we hate to miss out on any of the shenanigans of the village, and pigs = shenanigans x 87 no matter how many you actually counted!!! YAM xx

Love Bob today. Love the thought of the naughty escaping piglets running up the lane.

Has Bob begun showing an appreciation of brandy? Wonder how he'd look in a homberg?

Excellent portrait of Bob.
Piglets on the lam today, goats earlier and horses before that. Farmers in your parts seem rather relaxed about their livestock.

Bertie doubts that Bob has yet developed Churchill's love of taking a daily bath!

Bob, you are just too cute in that photo. Hopefully, your sister is doing a great job of guarding the house with those doves walking around on the lawn. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful rest of your day.

Bertie's doubts are just as well. A daily Bob bath would be awfully hard on Angus.
