I've just spent the last two days driving across the moors with my boys, watching the dog swim in the river and Corey plodge in it. Yesterday there were floods in the area so we drove looking at the waterfalls that had sprung up, today we took a picnic and sat at our place as James cooked burgers for him and Corey and we had a picnic next to a bubbling stream before going for a short walk. It was perfect you know. It was the first time in months that James hasn't taken any overtime for his days off so we just spent time as a family, driving late into the night, listening to music. It was what we needed and I enjoyed every moment.

They're very trusting up there. We bought new potatoes from a farm where they leave the bags on the wall and you put the money in a box. Same with the free range eggs, there's nothing stopping you taking all you want and paying nothing. Not that we did that of course. James also bought steaks from another farm, I don't actually like steak but still, there's something wrong about buying a steak when the cows are standing looking at you over a fence. It's just wrong, man.

In other news my blood tests came back negative which is great. But I'm on yet another course of evil antibiotics and have to go to the doctors every two days to get my leg dressed because of the infection that just won't go, which is inconvenient but could be worse.

Fannish wise I have nothing as I haven't been online since yesterday morning, and even then it was for five minutes. Tomorrow will be catch up day I think.

ETA: This is mainly for my amusement so I can remember. We were talking about goats and Corey asked if they gave milk out of their milk spouts like cows. Milk spouts, it's going to keep me amused for days *g*
