Ducking Out

Having been out with a chum for most of Saturday, I was "supposed" to be doing more of this...


Kitchen curtain making in case you're wondering. That's what I've been "making" or should I say have gone "back to making" [since I abandoned them last year!] these past couple of weeks. Sadly, I am easily distracted and utterly incapable of resisting the opportunity of going out on a jolly if the opportunity presents itself. So it was with a gloriously guilt free conscience we paid a long overdue return visit to the Wildfowl Trust in Arundel. The last time I went I think was when it was TYM's 3rd birthday!

Mr GBT loves ducks....he was not to be disappointed. It was an extra treat to have the sunlight catching the iridescent plumage.







If you're a thrifty old bird like me it's even better to pay 10% less by buying the tickets online for any of the Wetland Trust places here https://wwt.digitickets.co.uk/branches?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_uXrkLeR4AIVy7HtCh3m6gXaEAAYASABEgLBcfD_BwE . I did make amends and sew another hem when I got home!

    Lots of duck colours in the curtain, or curtain colours in the ducks!

      I hadn't thought of it like that, but now you come to mention it!
