| Blakeney Point |
We decompressed at Clare's niece's place in London. We were admittedly pleased to be back in 'civilisation'! After a couple of days we got on a train and arrived at our first housesit in a while.
We were welcomed by the lovely homeowners and our special new boss, Murphy the Otterhound.
Murphy was the perfect gentleman as a host. Both at the house .......

We had to be available to wipe this guys chops after every drink. It was always a messy affair!
And on our daily walks with him just outside the back door and into the woods.
Although there were no otters in the area that we know of, Murphy was best kept on his lead as he wasn't really keen on other dogs. This was no problem at all as he walked so beautifully on lead.
We had the use of the family van so that we could explore further afield.
One day we went to Blakeney Point on the coast. It was a really busy and hot bank holiday.
It was so hot that we had to call into the local cafe for a drink and a rest in the shade.
We also trotted out to Thetford Forest on a couple of occasions. The second time because Clare had lost here glasses out of the van. Fortunately some kind soul had popped them safely on a dog poop bin where we found them the next day.

We enjoyed some great British food.

| Roast beef and Yorkshire puddings! |
And Clare got her 'sourdough' back on.
The house we were sitting was on the market and we agreed to host a showing on the Saturday.
This was such a lovely sit to relax us back into our housesitting lifestyle. We had a wonderful time with Murphy and feel like we made lifelong friends with the homeowners.
