We just came back from a visit to see my brother and his family in sunny Milton Keynes. Had a fab time, wonderful warm company and delicious food,a walk in the woods and Nerf gun fights (don't ask but no one was hurt!)- thanks guys.
As you may imagine we managed an escapade on our way back home. We called in at Stafford service station where there is a lovely lake to walk and sit by. We thought we'd be kind to Sally and give her a walk around the lake. Thats where we came unstuck - or should I say Sally came unleashed! She slipped out of her halti which I had obviously not put on properly, and jumped straight in the lake and chased ducks and geese managing to bite the bottom of one goose while lots of people came to watch! There was no way she was listening to us so in the end out of desperation both Joseph and Tony waded in after her and managed to catch her only after trawling backwards and forwards across the lake to a crowd's horror/delight and me cringing behind a bush! Tony lost his sandals such was the thickness of the mud and they were up to their necks in the water. Tony was fuming with Sally and I had to keep her away from him once she was out of the water. Both Joseph and Tony had to strip off to get in the car and as we'd only stayed over night they'd decided only to take the clothes they had on. Both of them had to travel back in nothing but undies - I'm still laughing at the thought!! Tony is still murmuring.
All three have had good showers since we returned! I think they'll live.
Sorry I was too stunned, shamed and embarrassed to take a photo at the time - we have to live with these regrets in life!
