2nd June

After a good start yesterday we were being very lazy yesterday and didn't do a great deal until after lunch.

Then I decided both Isobel and I were going out no matter what. We set off with the dogs and went across the road onto the moor. After about 10 minutes of ball throwing and catching with the dogs we set off for the walk properly. It was very hot and the poor dogs were panting like mad.

We had to drop in at the post office to post a small package but then we carried on down the fields. Thankfully there were no farm animals in any of the fields we had to cross so both the dogs were off the leads. The minute we hit the first field they both ran downhill to the stream where they had a drink and Evie wallowed in the water and the mud. Bear just walked down the middle of the stream.

We crossed three fields where both dogs ran after the bunnies never once even nearly catching them. A last bit of waste ground had lots of the furry bundles giving the dogs a run for their money. Then it was uphill to a road, across the road, up a track and back into our village.

Approx 4 miles walked in total in quite some heat.
