Lone Pine Lodge

I am exhausted, the girls have got me back up after midnight 4 times this week. When I say the girls on three of those it was Kandi, she is too interested in finding out by smell who was walking in the field before her on our late night walk(9 ish) and then has to go to toilet 2 to 3 hours later. Last night it was men on a shoot up on one of the mountains, I had the window open and it was Kandi barking at the shots woke me, Saffron had already left the bedroom to hide in the stair well. Kandi stopped barking at my fist word and came and hid her head in my armpit. So I got up shut the window and took them downstairs where they sat as close to me as they could for about half an hour when they suddenly relaxed, wandered off and went to sleep. I assume that the hunt had stopped by then but I left it an other half hour before getting us all back to bed. The shoot was probably after a fox or foxes. WE still let our sheep roam free on the mountain moorlands. Any how back to the subject. Day 11 I did manage to do some thing artistic, It doesn't shoe up very well but it looks horible when it is autocolour enhanced.

I present my version in pastel.


And after my late night last night I defaulted to more ear rings, I can do those in my sleep.
