And now for something completely different. On our long walk this morning, Ruby and I came across this, which I thought was so unusual. Jackson will recognise where this is.

Heh, I noticed that the week it had been butchered. I rather liked it but it was sad to see the flowers gone . Can't remember what it was though. A brutal haircut if ever I saw one.
