Had a great weekend, very busy as usual. Had a good game of hockey on Saturday for the 3's against Maidenhead - lost as usual - don't think I've played for a winning side yet this year - but a good old scrap. Some of the youngsters playing are astonishingly good, sublime stick skills just need to pass a bit. I was surprised by their strength in tackles against players twice their age.
Saturday night was very good - had a quiet drink in the Dumb Bell - the highlight of the evening being whilst we were just chatting away, there was a massive crash next to us - Martin had missed the stool and was looking blearily back at us all from underneath a table - very amusing indeed. Then had a very coherent conversation on Skype with Mr Wooler.
Sunday morning we put some food out for the birds on our bird table and had loads of visitors - including four 'long tailed tits' - no great tits or blue tits this time. Also just behind the fence in the back garden there was a whole flock of Redwings turning the leaves over looking for grubs - must have been 20 or 30 of them. With my appetite whetted, Cash and I went and took Mylo for a walk round Hedgerley where there is an RSPB wood. As you can see from the photo we knew where we were going as usual - great countryside, fabulous views but not as much wildlife as the back garden!!
