          Good afternoon Eve and Marley many thanks for your lovely comments very much appreciated,Tiny and Penny must be kept on the lead and Mrs Woo has her hands full(only joking)we take it in turns to use our cameras,but I have such a zest for life since Mrs Woo purchased the new lens for me,(since my few weeks confinement) what kept me going was that when I could go out ,I would fly everywhere;) I have just returned from pruning all the Roses at the local surgery ,enjoy your day my friends:)
