Yes alright you didn't even notice I was gone, did you?
Drove down to I o W on Saturday for son's wedding on Sunday.
After a nightmare journey got to the car ferry just in time to see it pull out but got put on next one an hour later. Portsmouth was gridlocked no idea why.
Anyway we were put up in a 5 star mansion guest house where the wedding and reception etc. was actually held.
Big 4 poster bed and excellent service. Could have easily have stayed for a week.
Highlight for me was looking out window while having breakfast and seeing a red squirrel running back and forth on big horizontal branch on the tree just outside. In late December? Last time I remember seeing red squirrels was back in Scotland as a child. Quite a while ago that was!

It's so mild now I bet lots of creatures aren't hibernating properly. We've seen red squirrels on visits to the reserve at Formby, in the wild in the Lakes & in captivity locally where they're breeding them to reintroduce them to the wild, just the chubby greys in our garden though.
