The weather's lovely and the garden is doing me proud.  I must get a camera to photograph it around the year.  The donkeys' flanks are bulging  disgracefully from their having stuffed themselves silly on the green grass in the R's field.  They simply love it there, and cantered and strutted - their heads held high and sideways-on to their bodies in their display posture - for at least ten minutes when I first put them there about ten days ago.  Got a surprise today, when my email to G asking if I could visit her and C, was unexpectedly and belatedly answered.  She accepted the proposal, which leaves me in a bit of a quandary as to when I can fit it in, having now agreed with S to go to Copenhagen in honour of her birthday.  
Went to look at cameras today.  There were so many it was astonishing, and who knows how to choose the right one?? For us short-sighted types, a view finder is recommended anyhow.
