Have taken the dog out and met several people that I know. Nice to have a chat. Sometimes it could be the only time that you would chat with someone outside of your four walls. They seem a very pleasant bunch and have been given the odd jar of marmalade even a bottle of wine. Dog walkers are usually great.

We had a bit of a scare yesterday. We were warned that a dog had been bitten by an adder, but it is recovering. We were careful where we walked, but some have a short memory and were walking where the snake was seen.
