linda_joyceI have two cousins, Beth Jill and I, They live round the corner from me and we look after each other.
Last night I went round to pick up some shopping they had done for me to find that Beth had sprained her ankle very badly while and I quote 'Falling off the mountain'. She had been picking winberries (blue berries) which only grow on the steepest of slopes around here and she slipped getting back down to the path. I don't know how she managed to drive home and this morning it her ankle is a lovely bronze colour from the bruising.. Jill, her sister, is 73 years old, practically blind and very, very arthritic, which makes me the healthiest one amongst us.
So I had to go fetch the bread for the week for us and walk Losyn. I took him up Pen-y-fan pond as I was going to throw a ball in to the water for him to retrieve until he decided he had enough and runs away and hides the ball but there was a notice up saying there was an algal bloom and please don't go into the water.
We walked the meadows in stead and we have now discovered another thing the daft bat doesn't like. The meadows had been mown and the grass left lying. Losyn would not walk over the mown area, he walked all around the edges. It is probably a sub set of his dislike of change but that boy is weird.
Anyhow part of the walk is along the edges of a stream that is kept very short by grazing bunny rabbits and there was this delightful little flower there. I would call it a micro-miniaturised meadow buttercup as the flower is the same colour and the stems and leaves are the same but the flower has only 4 petals instead of 5 in the meadow buttercup. The flower in smaller than my little finger nail, it was so cute. The vetch was in full bloom too so where the meadows hadn't been mown were a blaze of yellow.
On the home front, the sparrows seem to have had a second brood as there was another skinny Mam and featherballs begging for food at the feeder yesterday so there are 6 more fat balls out there for them. They were having to make do with peanuts.
Finally the Meyers-Brigg test got from vilakins, as with her so with me not such a surprise.
