Went for an early morning Boxing Day ride- it is a cracking day! Several Buzzards were sitting in the trees but a real highlight was a Peregrine shot across in front of me at head height. Our Blackcaps are now regulars in the garden and we seem to have a resident Moorhen at the moment!

Sad that our Boxing Day football is at a stupid time one of two silly broadcast times we have this week. We are actually going because we haven’t for family for a couple of days! Fingers crossed it will be a worthwhile journey!
