Tea in bed this morning, off to a meeting about housing in town later.  They've all been on Teams (online) up to now, I much prefer in person.  

No frost but the grounds wet and a bit slippy. It was a day like this I fell last winter, ice grips on my hiking boots for Dageus's walk.

Be careful Raven..
Bitterly cold here.. sunshine.

Back home safely BUT, that idiot dog just had to find a deep rock pool to fall in, Now he's soaked and shivering with the cold.......Sigh.

I recall years back we were in the campervan I think at Combe Martin. There was a concrete pathway along the sea shore. under the rocky cliff.



We had our Yorkies on leads. The tide was in and up against the pathway which was in poor repair. One of them managed to fall through a hole and into the water below and was hanging on the lead. One very wet and sorry for herself dog. 

Good job she was on a lead !

Poor dog.  These things happen, I'm afraid.
Cats have more sense, of course, and wouldn't dream of going near any water!

I imagine we'd have lost her if she wasn't. Years back one of my neighbours lost their dog through the ice on a pond.

how awful for them
