Day 232 of Ania's Diary

Ania ate her breakfast but prior to that we had one of the slowest walks ever. She slept all morning and then we had a couple of hours of heavy rain.
When it clear I mentioned Stover park to the other half and that was it- Ania was alert.
It is so cold and windy here as well but we decided to go. It was the perfect weather for Ania and she loved it. We stopped after 15 minutes for a rest and a drink of water but Ania was eager to be off. In fact we did the walk in record time.
There were lovely baby ducks who insisted on coming out of the water to us and we had to shoo them back in the water in case the dogs got at them.
The nesting swan seems to have moved to another spot which is most unusual.
We missed the rain and got back just in time before another heavy shower came .
The dogs have eaten all their dinner and are now very contented and fast asleep which I am delighted about.

Fudge will be a nuisance though as he never stops drinking and I will have to take him out at least 4 times as the evening progresses but am lucky he will then sleep through the night.
