Well with workmen in everyday for the last three days and untill the end of next week we have to be and about with the dogs. so I thought you might like to see where we been.
Monday we took the dogs to the mansion.
But you have seen pics of the Mansion and the grounds
Tuesday we went to Felixstowe but it rained nearly all day and we had to find shelter.
But today we went to Colchester, and even though it was windy and we had a few showers I got some lovely pics of the castle and the castle grounds.
so make sure you have a cuppa, are you comfortable.
first the journey

the dogs loved the train


At the Castle



This is now a museum,

Thanks Ladies for your lovely comments.
Lizzie our Son knows I am terrified well maybe not terrified but I do over worry when my kids any kids are near water, ben has terrible trouble walking in a straight line, his eyes will look where he is going and he doesn't see the obstacles in his way and he has bad balance to, when he was little he was always falling over and walking into things. So he was teasing me by saying "Mum look I can balance without falling in." show off.
And Hubby loves his beanie hat.

Fantastic pics Veronica, the scenery looks wonderful,

Jan we live in ipswich Suffolk England.

Jules thats because I'm such a good mummy. I took Molly into the doll house shop and the ladies loved her, after looking her over and admiring all her fine details one said "It's so nice to see a baby well dresssed with booties for this cold weather." and she new Molly was a reborn doll.
