27/52 Bearded Dragon, Linton Zoo

So the Photographers Day at Linton Zoo arrived and what a scorcher it was. Now, you may think that a lovely hot sunny day is ideal for getting amongst the animals and getting some lovely pictures…well, it is better than if it was tipping it down with rain! However, all

362/366 Mother In Laws Christmas Present

I’ll admit, I was completely confused when I opened this present. All I saw was an Apple like box with the words “USB Rechargable” splashed all over it and a picture of what my addled brain thought was a Zippo lighter! Had she forgotten we had given up smoking almost
