Comments |
We met a variety of dogs: labradoodle, Irish wolfhounds, collie, dachshund. Lots of cute calves and cows, and lambs. We spotted the Ukrainian flag on a hill top. “Best walk for a while” - George Wildlife: We saw a cuckoo and heard two others; herons, martins, lots of swallows, starlings. Hare, deer, rabbits. |

The Plough in Town Yetholm. The curry was very hot - Lance just managed to cope. No crumble. |
