This girl! From having major spinal surgery earlier in the year, to running around like a pup again now. A few months off her 10th birthday and always a pup to us. The best thing we ever did was rescue her, thanks to Lurcher SOS. We love our Petal 😍

It's Punkie Night tonight! Hand me a mangle-wurzel! 😀
It was lovely to be back presenting on BBC Radio Somerset yesterday & chatting with Roger about the tradition of Punkie Night. He was brilliant at explaining it & he also shared some of his unusual family traditions. Jam doughnut bobbing anyone?
