Spring is Here

Our spirits have all been lifted by such a wonderful sunny start to spring. It hasn't been all play for us though, and the B.U. woodsbears have been beavering away (literally) all weekend at a huge pile of wood which has been salvaged, with permission, following hedge cutting in the churchyard.


The huge ivy covered heap of wood was tackled enthusiastically, but safely, with axes. Stripping the ivy off was a back breaking task, but it is true that many paws make light work. Patrick was excused as he needed to cheer his side on to victory in the Six Nations Rugby tournament. His passionate support clearly did the trick and you couldn't have found a happier bear anywhere, when Ireland won the Grand Slam.

The rest of us felt we had earned our celebratory pint of Guinness as a reward for all our hard work which you can see in our next picture.


Tommy and Rocco found plenty of signs that spring has arrived on their walk in some local woods. They found so much frogspawn that Tommy decided he must think seriously about building a pond in the B.U. garden.


Bris and Gio came back from the church service they went to this morning full of smiles. Some wonderfully crafted Mothering Sunday gifts had been given out: handmade boxes with heart shaped chocolates inside.


You may be thinking that Bris & Gio are neither ladies or mothers and of course you are right. They were lucky that there were some spares and who could resist such charming furry faces?

Lots of love and a Happy Mothers Day to all our female readers,
