Dramatic rescue
We went up the Montevers mer de glace glacier today. There are steps leading down to a cave and someone broke their foot descending and had to be airlifted out. We had a good view of the dramatic rescue

Poised
Daughter did a show down her stables today, Here she is waiting for her turn to be inspected.
Working dog
Pip is a border terrier and you have to have these hand-stripped, not clipped when their fur gets too bushy. She was done today, here she is looking all lean. She is taking a break from writing her autobiography.
Sunset view
There is a lovely panoramic view of the sunset from our holiday cottage in St Breward
Fairy garden
Look it’s all sepia it must be authentic
Atop Little Rough Tor
We are on holiday in Cornwall, staying on Bodmin moor. My daughter is horseriding so Sarah and I went for a 10 mile run around the moor with Pip. There are some stunning rock formations, here I am on top of one called Little Rough Tor.
