Well here we are in lockdown again and on yet another lonely walk, which is just like all the walks before lockdown, the two terriers they disappear into a small copse and start rummaging around a pallet with what looks like a couple of torsos on it. After they both pee on it the pause in their perpetual motion allows me to catch up with them and discover what looked suspiciously like a couple of torsos is in fact the boles of two old holly bushes.
It's quite surprising how a layer of frost changes the appearance of what is an everyday object. When I questioned the farmer he told me they were seasoning because he's given them to a wood turner in exchange for a holly wood fruit bowl, must say I don't envy him tidying all the bits of wire and baler twine that are absorbed into the wood but I've no doubt they will look wonderful. Perhaps I should put my order in.
John, those two terriers will keep you in photographic material on your lonely walks.
