Not a reindeer in sight

Today a change of plan was going birding but not much about so I took the opportunity to go and take some shots of the annual Lincoln Santa fun run.
I took plenty of shots some of which can be seen HERE . I went with this shot showing the start of the doggy dash. I love the way some of the dogs are bounding off and the one on the right pulling its owner .
In other news yet more expense the microwave decided to stop working this afternoon so a trip out to get a new one
