Goodness, some days it is just hard to write a blog...

I was back, baby, and doing so well last week, but then we went to Berlin (yeay!) and my Blogger went german (ohhhh!). It was awfully hard to understand, so I figured I would skip a couple of days. But then I got a bit sick (ahhh!) and didn't want to write a blog, just lie in bed reading other peoples. So I did (niiice!). 

Normal service will be resumed, but not today. I will try again tomorrow.

In which you get to see wildlife in action, pretty much the same way you would if David Attenborough was showing you.

Remember those first photos you took that were of an insect or something that came out really badly when you finally got the photos back in the post? Yep, this is pretty much one of them, except that frankly today's youth (my jammy nephew)are lucky to have crystal clear digital shots.

There are two lizards in this photo. 

(Right by the top two holes if you can't see them).

We saw them near Portland Bill. 

Most exotic for Dorset.

We didn't just hang out on my bed all summer. We did other things too.

We went to the lighthouse a few times (that'd be Portland Bill for those of you that know), it's an awfully good one.

(that is so totally nearly life size)



It's just lovely down there when the sun shines.

I may have been awfully forgetful about blogging but I had a fabby couple of weeks with my nephew. And that is totally delicious.

We hung out a lot, me and the lovely boy (and my sister of course, but you know, she is great and all, but he is so darn cute). 







Of course, looking at those pictures, it is entirely possible we hung out too much.
