Monday

Out early so I could walk Hetty before a Dentist check up in Chippenham. All good.

As I was in Chippenham, I went to see Louise. She's recovering from looking after her grandson over the weekend. He's most agreeable and easy going but she still found it tiring. Babies are definitely for youngsters.

Marco, her tortoise, was very active. He loves company and follows her. Louise isn't keen.

Really he's William's tortoise but William didn't take Marco when he left home.

Marco would once fit on the palm of your hand. Now he's quite a lump!
