Rachel and Heidi have been away for a night, after taking June back to Chagford. They set off yesterday morning early to avoid the traffic, and both returned this evening at tea time.

Heidi has been well behaved and has been meeting lots of people. She did her weekly visit to the farm where the two of them and Audrey went for a long walk over the fields and by the river. Rachel collected a few stones for Heidi’s aquarium on the way.

She is carried into the house with eyes as bright as buttons and I get my cuddle and smile.

Emily pops by to see H and soon it is bath time. Loads of din as Heidi shouts but soon calms to the splashing of water on her legs and bum.

After a feed she is fast asleep, hopefully catching up on much needed sleep, and will wake again much later…..
