After a frantic week last week we decided to go away for a quiet long weekend in the country. We have been chuckling to ourselves since we arrived on site on Saturday about the term ‘quiet’ weekend. There is a field of sheep behind the site bleating noisily away, every time I sit down outside the caravan I am accosted by a flock of ducks begging for food and there are a couple of dozen crows In the trees above cawing noisily from dawn to dusk. It’s definitely not quiet but lovely to get away for a few days. Home tomorrow sadly.

Hah, reminds me of the time I camped somewhere near Glastonbury one summer, in the company of two ancient and venerable oaks called Gog and Magog, just over the hedge. Lovely site - can't remember the name! All was well until somewhere after 4am the next morning, and then.... woodpeckers. You win some, you lose some!

Wildlife can be very noisy. We have fields front and back of us at home. You have the foxes, especially the young ones who screech looking for their mum. We have the owl, the cuckoo, the pheasants, doves and then the rooks and crows when they wake up. We have a rook and pigeon that seem to hang around together every morning, and at the moment we have the ducks come by, looking for somewhere to nest. I love sitting there watching them all, it’s very entertaining. Mr Robin always sits on the fence as your doing the gardening.
Would I change it, certainly not.
