Bangle and I went to dog park for a long walk having first picked up coffee etc. from BP’s Wild Bean Café. Yesterday, as I forgot to mention, 15 sheep were out and abut in the garden. At some point the wooden gate into the Front paddock had been left open and when Marcus let sheep into the Front paddock a small number escaped. I shooed them away from my young beech trees – no obvious damage there – down to the cattle stop and into the Long Acre where they’ve been ever since.
