A trip to Tideswell.

A trip to Tideswell.

I accompanied the humans on a last minute trip to London to deliver a commission on Thursday, and on the way back, we stopped off with my good friend Messenger for the night. It was great to catch up with him and his friends.

A slice of pre-history…

A slice of pre-history…

Esther had a day out today, visiting some antiquities! She went to Castell Henllys Iron Age fort, where once upon a time Mrs Human dug holes in the ground. There are reconstructed roundhouses to look into!

Popping up in the Play Lab

Popping up in the Play Lab

Fury and I had a day out yesterday. We went over the Pennines on the scenic M62, although it was a bit too foggy to see much of the view.

A steamy day out!

I went on a tram ride, to the Museum of Science and Industry! Nearly there, I saw this street name. Ugh, that’s like humans calling a street Guts Street!
