And now a word from our sponsor

Kerys came back from Skiing trip happy, but feverish bless her. She wasn't even well enough to come to Kingston Lacey for an Easter egg hunt. As she was tucked up in bed with Albas oil on a tissue and dosed up with Calpol 6+, we nicked off for a couple of hours to give her some peace.

The Easter Egg hunt was sponsored by Cadburys... jeez - come on National Trust! You don't need sponsorship, surely? Anyhoo, it was nice but most of the 'hunt' was in parts of the gardens which don't allow dogs. So we just carried on and pretended not to see the 'No Dogs beyond this point' signs. At one stage I even feined looking intently at the egg hunt map because I *knew* we were walking past one of these signs and into the formal gardens with a raggedy old scruffy smelly dog pulling on the lead.

We 'won' the hunt. Oh! My! A Cadburys easter egg as a prize! Now who would've guessed?
