Not four handles

Many, many thanks for all the hearts for yesterday’s juvenile woodpecker and parent, as always, much appreciated.  I should have done a better job of processing it.

MK this morning where I picked up a couple of books, had a browse around Charles Clinkard shoe shop (I will return) and after tea and a croissant, bought a set of Rick Stein mugs, which I’ve had my eye on for many months,

I then went to meet JJ in the picture department and found him conversing with blippers Anniemay and Igor.  Good to see them as always.  I hope they found Wex and spent some money.

When we went to our friends house to water last week we heard a strange beeping noise.  I thought my phone had run out of battery but it hadn’t.  I mentioned it to C when she got home and she has tracked the noise down to a family of midwife toads, which are fairly rare but known to be in Bedfordshire.  She still hasn’t seen them as they’re hiding in foliage around the pond.

This is the handle to the side gate for today’s “metal” challenge.
