Messing about...

...on the river lake.

A frustrating start to the day searching for MrM's keys, which seemed to have disappeared off the face of the earth but, we discovered eventually, had fallen down behind the microwave! At least he found them!

We walked around one of the lakes at Branton in the afternoon, hoping to pick blackberries. There were plenty of them, but all very small, many misshapen, and not ripe enough to pick, so no luck. It was a nice walk though. Hundreds of geese on the lake, mostly greylags but some Canada geese too, and lots of other birds flying around.

Home to a stew, ready to eat in the slow cooker by the time we got home the long way round over the moors. About to relax with a glass of wine...
