June 24, 2012 by the ashton alternative

A little trip (part 1)

April 21, 2012 by the ashton alternative

We’ve been away and since we’ve been back, it’s rained almost non-stop, which has made me feel really blah. Especially since we had sunshine in both Surrey and Suffolk. (As demonstrated by Hubbie and Niblet at the park, below!!)
