It is only at moments like this that I realise how close to the road we are. He is cutting the garden hedge.

Boris is the Allesley belfry snake. He helps to protect us from the terrible draft that comes under the door. He was made in 1977 and as far as I know has never had a bath! So last night he took a spin in my washing machine......and how smart he is now!!
He is sitting on the Tower Archives. I have spent a great amount of time since the weekend incorporating three folders worth of outing itineraries and ringing competition certificates into the main archive. As a result it has expanded into two volumes....in fact it really needs to be divided into three, as I got the promise of even more photos last night. We must be one of the best documented towers in the land!

Oh no ......they have removed his woolly jumper just as the weather has turned cold! Bull in a Woolly Jumper

I never fail to be surprised to see the spire of St Martin's appear above the pavement.
