Not being one to miss an opportunity, I decided to enter a snap shot of myself in to a Spring Photo competition ............
You'll probably remember the photo from my Spring Time blog .......
People must have thought it a good shot because I ended up winning the competition!
Here's what I won .........
 |
| 84 quids worth of lovely L'Occitane toiletries ... RESULT! |
So, after some thought, I came up with the idea of running my own prize draw in conjunction with a SIX MILE sponsored walk around the site of our new Wildlife Hospital.
For every £1, sponsors get an entry in to my prize draw.
So far I have £125 worth of sponsors ........ so I thought it about time I got in some serious training!
So it was off down to Sissinghurst for some country walking!
 |
| Here's me checking out the map whilst my driver parks the car! |
Sissinghurst began life as a Saxon pig farm and within a few wealthy years became a small moated manor house.
 |
| Looks like a nice place, best go and pay my entrance fee! |
 |
| "Eleven ruddy quid to visit a pig farm ....... you gotta be 'avin a 'bubble bath'"! |
First stop ........ tea shop!
Training warm up ..... legging it past someone's Grandad to get the last window seat!
 |
| Slice of cake for energy and cup of tea for hydration! |
Then it was time to do some serious walking .........
 |
| Bingo! |
 |
| Down the garden path ............ |
 |
| Around the lakes ............ |
 |
| Through the woods .......... |
 |
| Beautiful Bluebells .......... |
 |
| Think I might jog this bit ............ |
 |
| Phew ... bit puffed ...... time for a sit down .............. |
 |
| Shame about the bird plop! |
Then it was back around the other side of the lakes for a walk around the beautiful gardens ......
 |
| A bit of climbing practise in the ornamental trees ........ |
 |
| Hmmm ..... wonder what's so private ......... |
 |
| Time for my ascent of the tower ......... |
 |
| "Jeese ........ feelin' a bit wibbly" |
 |
| WOW ...... that was worth the climb and the £11 entrance fee! |
 |
| Well 'urned' rest ...... hahahaha ..... No, I didn't think it was that funny either! |
 |
| Oooo ....... wonder what's in there? |
 |
| "Hello Pussy" ........ love that handsome mane! |
 |
| Decided to give the swim in the moat a miss ........ didn't want to come out smelling of Fish and Ducks! |
 |
| Bit embarrassing ....... so worn out I fell asleep on the national trust teapot and had to be carried back to the car! |
Pretty pleased with my training ........ and after a well earned sleep I set about making a 'Fox-Ometer' to keep a tally of my sponsor money.
As usual I've decided to share my artwork and make a little sheet of my 'Fox-Ometer' ..... just in case you ever have the need to keep track of any important statistics!
