Lovely photos Sophie and Karen, love the ones in the long grass. The grass has been cut in our fields, so the dogs can see where they're going now. It must be going to rain tonight, tractors everywhere today.

Elle, Jessica is a dancer of the future, that did make me laugh. I sent you a few photos today, hope you got them.

Karen, Domino has a habit of picking up the cuddly toys of which we have hundreds and taking them outside, then attacks them, makes them very dirty and I have to put them in the washing machine.

OK, I'm off to get Charlotte to bed, so I can watch The Apprentice in peace, I still think Lee will win, don't know why, we'll see.

I've got my newsletter too and I think it's excellent, some lovely colour photographs and varied content, I've read a lot of it but need to finish reading it later. Well done Ali and all who contributed to the content.
