I did a lot of walking back when I was blocked, so I thought I'd share some photos I made on my travels.
Spring lambs by a cattle grid:

More spring lambs, this time in a field:

Twins chop and cutlet again (now renamed tofu and nutroast out of sensitivity to the recent anmial cruelty strife), peeing and kissing at the same time:

I came across this strange building in the middle of the forest:

And of course, my Pop in a field next the the forest:

Cool pics. Is that outside London? For what it's worth, don't take that scenery for granted.
Don't you have a problem with Pop chasing all the sheep?

Thanks, it's a bit closer to the Scottish border than London. Pop prefers rabbits and squirrels (the occasional deer). The border collie in Smudge is his downfall when it comes to sheep, but he's getting less prone to temptation with age.

Beautiful scenery pat, did you take that photo yourself? It looks very professional. I love the little white patch on Fayeroe's chest! What breed is s/he? Those flowers remind me of when the Californian Poppies I planted overrun the garden.

> Qyup, i took it. i'm a photographer and that was Fayeroe's first "posing" photograph. it was taking north of Austin. i think they are called "Indian Paintbrushes"........
i do notecards from my photos. i have a whole series with another dog, Tippy.
Fayedy is half Airedale and half Boxer. she is really, really smart. i have to get up very early to get ahead of her head. she learns at an extraordinary speed. and she is an excellent guarddog for me. i live alone and she caught a guy one night who was window-peeping...:-)

The wood is part of the parkland of a castle just a mile further east so I think it probably has something to do with that. The castle was built in the 14th Century, not sure if this is older or newer? According to a map Meri-Tuuli showed me it's called 'The Folly' and according to Wiki:

One of a different angle:

It feels a little bit creepy. It's partly demolished now but looks as though it was lived in until fairly recently.

Kind of looks like an old church. Wow, to be walking through the forest and see that. So cool.
Such a pretty place.

I think I must have lived in that type of building in a past life. When I see photos of them I get the most intense feeling.

Now that you mention it, I do too. Things like that fascinate me. Plus, a lot of my clan came from Scotland. I'd sure like to know the story of that building.

Think you could find out anything on that building Quintal? Curiosity is killing me.
I wonder if I could google it? Is there a town close by?
Once again, really great pictures. Thanks.

I'm wondering if it could have been a masonic temple?
