Excursion

 
Phoebe (right) and Margot (left)  - picture taken today. It is not as easy as you might imagine to snap a decent picture of those two strong-willed sisters together. This one was the best I could come up with today.

I was with them and their mother Frances at Matlock Farm Park out in The Peak District. It is a countryside attraction developed with children in mind. There are pens for farm animals, a reptile house, a barn for small animals like rabbits and guineapigs, a huge trampoline, swings and slides and climbing frames. We also saw sheep racing and Phoebe got to ride on a horse called Boi. We also had our lunch there. It was a grand day out and the weather was kind to us.

Below - there's Phoebe on Boi and Margot back in the tractor cab and a highland cow refusing to storm the feeding station with her mates. After all, when it comes to dining,  manners are important.
