Hi folks welcome to another Sunday Sevens, a collection of 7 or more photos from the last 7 days. 😁
On Monday eve I met a couple of friends for a date with some dogs! Isle Of Dogs is the latest Wes Anderson movie and it’s definitely got the Anderson quirkiness. The story revolves round a Japanese Cities population of dogs who are all banished to ‘Trash Island’ after an outbreak of doggy illness. One boy vows to get his beloved ( though some what tick infested! ) best friend back, so we follow the scruffy mutts adventures as they attempt to become reunited with their former humans. I quite enjoyed it. ☆☆☆☆
It was my sisters birthday recently so it was nice to get together with her little family to celebrate. We went out for a lovely meal to The Three Fishes in Mitton. I loved my Fish & Chips served on a fishy plate. 😊
My sister will probably kill me ( if she reads this!) but my favourite photo that I have loved this week has got to be a selfie she took of her and the cat. 🐱 Sis has just turned 41 and Chloe is 20 this year. Talk about the fountain of youth ladies. xx
Thank goodness Spring has arrived! Lots of colour in my local park this week. Always nice to see. 😁
Yesterday was a pleasantly warm day so we made the most of it with a couple of walks. We drove over the fells towards High Bentham, hoping to do a good hike round there.
Unfortunately we couldn’t let Hugo off lead as there were lots of ground nesting grouse in the grass. I was pretty delighted to hear their calls and catch glimpses of their eye-catching red eye flashes. I swear I saw a black grouse ( I think the one below is a red grouse) but now I’m not so sure. Anyway it was wonderful to see them….and also The Great Stone Of FourStones , a local landmark , that made us think of a mini Ayres Rock. 🙂 This glacial deposit has been used as a border marker for Lancashire and Yorkshire. It is said that it was dropped on the moors by the Devil himself, whilst on his way to Kirkby Lonsdale to fashion Devils Bridge. There are well worn steps carved into the side.
After larking about on The Great Stone we drove over to Clapham in North Yorkshire and had a wander along Clapham Nature Trail with Hugo. He had a splashing time in the brook with a couple of golden retrievers. 🙂
Thanks to Natalie at Threads And Bobbins for devising Sunday Sevens.
Look at that rock, it’s amazing.
I know! A great discovery! X
I love English folklore!
The Great Stone was certainly a great find. 🙂
Looks like you had a good week. I like the sound of that film, I love animal stories so I’ll have to track it down. The cat in your sister’s selfie looks very sweet, is she really so old? 🙂
Yes Chloe is 20 this year. She always has looked like a supermodel. 🙂 Isle of Dogs is out at the cinema now. X
What a great rock! Yes, that is a red grouse, a male.
Thanks for the id. 😁X
What a fab week!!! 🙂 x
It was pretty good! Xx
I love the picture of your sister and her cat too. The cat is posing so serenely!
Straight off the cat walk ! X
Groan!

Love the steps in that rock! 🙂 🙂 And I hope Sis doesn’t kill you!
It was awesome on top of that rock! Don’t think sis has read this. Tee hee. 😉
