A gentle stroll in the forest

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

Sue and I took a lovely walk today. From Burley Street, Forest Drive then headed north into the forest and back round to Burley. On the way we saw the shedded skin of an Adder, then disturbed a herd of deer who fleeted away from us, and the sun was shining!

Here are the pics.

Burley Village Show

The family and I enjoyed a lovely afternoon today at the 2008, Burley Village Show. Held at the Manor Park in Burley, just in the shadows of the Burley Manor. The Burley villagers came out in force to enjoy an afternoon of fun.

There were many different shows including a fun dog show, a dramatic bird of prey flying exhibition, live music and of course the usual village fete style vegetable and flower growing competitions. Being in The New Forest, and especially in Burley there was a fine selection of equestrian events and demonstrations.

All in all, a great afternoon, which was fantastic for the children as well as the adults.
