school and a pretty walk

The boys gave school a try today, Rowan went in straight away with Jenny, Callum's cold was very runny over the weekend but he is a lot better today and with a few hesitations he eventually decided to go in himself. The other children were very excited and they seem to have settled in fairly well.

We found a lovely walk at San Sadurnino about 6 miles from here but yet again the rain only relented long enough to grab a couple of photos.A lot of the walks have wooden or gravel walkways and it can seem a bit artificial but there are many wild walks to be found too apparantly.

The weather is set to improve as the week progresses and we are really looking forward to a sunny weekend although there is plenty of time for the forecast to deteriorate. We had a pheasant in the garden again this afternoon and Wildmite is getting very friendly with Jenny rubbing against legs and allowing the occasional stroke but not so keen on me - we think as it is usually me who shouts and chases the other cats away and I do a lot of chopping of wood near where his den is too....ah well time will fix that I hope and maybe we will have a house cat eventually.

Hiya we are really looking forward to seeing you all too. Not sure about the state of your caravan, some of the horrero fell on it, it did not look too bad from the outside but Sam mentioned it being a bit worse that it looks. Sam is at Pantin surfin and Mel Lorenna Jenny Poppy and Simon are out for a walk from our house just now - will ask for an update. We have a roadworthy oldish caravan here but are thinking of taking it back to the UK to sell on at the beginning of April as it is really hard to import a UK one to Spain. It is still a bit chilly at night here but daytime has been lovely recently like a UK summer ..not bad for Feb :-) xxxxxxxx
