I have 30 mile commute to work which is mainly through the dorset countryside. During the last few weeks I have been glancing into the fields to see the sheep population slowly growing day by day. Is there anything more cute than a day old lamb? Puts a smile on my face when I see them in the fields.

Follow on from Saturdays gladdening moments. Youngest 3 all watched Masters with me yesterday thanks to afternoon viewing, and today all asked to go to play golf. So off to Dino adventure golf we went, my boy whose 8 loved it and wants to goto driving range, my 7 year old little gymnast realised she is better at gymnastics 😂 and my youngest she's only 5 taught us all a lesson that we never knew about her she has superb hand eye coordination required absolutely no assistance and could putt the lights out on her first go so much so she wants to in her words "try big person golf like the tiger man in TV" oh and MRS Wolf wants to have a go at the range to now.

Yesterday I picked up a couple of rib eye steaks from the local butcher. Lots of arm waving and Spanglish but we got there in the end. And after an hour of YouTube vids on how to prepare and cook the steaks I banished HID from the kitchen. WOW! Absolutely perfectly cooked, maybe more by luck than judgement. Proper 'doorstep' chips. Fried onions, mushrooms, tomatoes and peppers.

My parents have come to stay for a few days and today took them to the club as dad was interested in where I play and maybe having a game whilst there here.

We didn't play today but my heart was hugely gladdened when he went off to the car brought back 2 putters and proceeded to give my oldest boy whose never played one of them and spent 45 minutes giving him a putting lesson and telling him how he taught me and now he wants to teach him. I just sat on one of the benches with my mum watching them both engrossed in each others company full of smiles and admiration for each other. Got some nice little pictures of it to.

My dogs Barley and Daisy. I could write this every day as they brighten my life constantly. Lovely walk with them this morning and they're zest for life is so infectious!

Did a short run and was hands on knees in the garden afterwards when I felt a presence and Barley had leaned up against me checking I was ok and offering a recovery "ledge".

Love them to bits :love:

Spent the afternoon on the pop with my dad an two guys aged 82 an 77 that I used to do a bit of work for.

Great fellas with great stories, an absolute pleasure.

The 82yo necked a full pint on his way out. We all have no excuse 🤦‍♂️
