Bradshaw Fields

Not much birding done today with some shopping on the agenda and a visit to Specsavers as well.

Pretty crap timing for my optician appointment this morning on such a lovely day!

After lunch I had a walk along the local fields past Crabtree Hall Farm and back - not a lot happening.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

I made a visit to my doctor last week with a painful Big Toe.

"Take those filthy wellies off" the doctor said ,soon followed by

"and those awful smelly socks!"

He prodded me big toe with his pen - not wanting to catch owt nasty.

"Look" he said "Put this cream on you toe every day for a week"

and...

a CLEAN pair of socks on every day.

So I did as he requested.

By Friday I could not get me wellies on.

The old ones blah blah.
