Wasn't the sun glorious on Saturday?
Our little clan met up with some friends at Woburn Abbey and took the little ones round the Safari Park.
This is my first encounter with a bear, and this one's even playing with a ball.
Beautiful Lioness' basking in the sun.
(I didn't take a photo of the rather amourous Lion making out with one of his hareem though - this isn't an x-rated blog afterall)
The Squirrel Monkey's were close enough to touch. Don't they look soft?
It's definitely a place I'd recommend to parents with children - it was set in beautiful parkland and was a really enjoyable day out. We plan to go back and visit the Abbey next time.
We drove back through Woburn Village, which looked like a very pretty little Georgian town to while away a couple of hours.
Unfortunately Violet seems to have come down with a nasty chest infection, so yesterday and today I've been mostly stuck indoors, but it's given me alittle time to knit.
I'm so close to finishing the front section. Just the right side of the shoulder to knit, which I might get done this evening when madam has gone to bed.
It would seem that I may have made a slight(!) mistake - I think I got alittle carried away with the Fairisle on the back section, so now I've had to knit extra on the front section to match. Fingers crossed it won't effect the overall look of the sweater too much when it's finally finished.
