Brambling

Yes, we know, we're late posting again.
Well we do have other things to do, you know, 
apart from keeping you all amused.
Anyway, this week we went brambling.
We're pretty good at it and can usually clear all the blackberries
up to the heights of our noses, and the Madwoman picks the ones
we can't quite reach for us.
But this year there are hardly any to be found.
The few there are, are puny little things, barely worth the careful
and delicate manouevring necessary to avoid getting
prickly bits in our schnozzles.
So this is a picture of us being forlorn.
Looks like we'll just have to make do with raspberries and blueberries
off the Madwoman's allotment.
Nice, but not as much fun as self-service eat-all-you-can-pick
rambles through the brambles.

That's a beautiful, sharp photo: beautiful colours.

The Madwoman is a bit hit and miss with a camera but fortunately we are always consistently photogenic!
