Costa Del Porty!!

woohooo, we're loving this weather - tis scorchio, although a bit on the breezy side, but that's only to be expected when you live right on the coast.

thought I'd share some pics of the us in the garden and a wee short vid of our new Koi Carp. Our pond has been leaky for a while now, and some of you may remember that a Heron decided to gorge himself on xmas morning with the huge goldfish and the wee shubunkins that we had in the pond. So, this time home, Graham has emptied, relined and refilled the pond. We had a clear out as some of the plants were getting a bit too rampant. And yesterday afternoon we went and restocked the pond. We bought 8 Koi - 1 had died before we even got half way home, then Graham went back today to get a replacement, another 2 Koi and 4 Weather Loaches. So, plenty of wee friends for the resident froggy.

Here's Scott...

 

and happiness personified... Faith...

  

then she decided to try and mug the cat...

 

sucking up to mum...

Ziggy hiding from the height-challenged mugger...

Willow's photo-shoot....

 

 

 

and finally, a half decent pic of me and the munchkins.........

Look at that LUV-LY weather - I am so jealous ;-) Great pics, thanks for sharing, your children are gorgeous. The fish are too cute. Maybe I should convert my pool into a big fish pond, I hardly ever swim in it.
