We Both Had A Early Start,

I dropped Diana off at 04.00 AM

then the usual househusband things, hoovering and a clean off of the limescale on the bathroom sink, plus a few other bits & pieces before I had time to start playing, I carried on with the illuminated creature that we saw in Crystal Palace Park that I started on yesterday, first a seahorse, above straight out of the camera, 

I lost a few of the background distractions,

the same for three swans, 

as always it does not look a huge difference, but when printed out they look so much better, 

and a nice one of Diana, admiring a elephant, I added a tad of detail to Diana legs, 

amongst other things, 

lastly a honey bee on a acorn, 

that I resized to fit a photograph ratio for printing, all great fun and the next time I am free I have a couple more still to play with, for a lot of the afternoon there was a frightful racket downstairs, I had thrown the fox some peanuts, which upset the crows, 

as it happened there was enough for all three of them, 

this crow chancing his wing getting so close to the fox,

then a truce was declared, during all of this after Diana had finished work she had called in to visit Kai, the girls popped out, 

to the local McDonald's, 

and cake shop, 

then into the garden where they picked a huge bowl of strawberries that Kai prepared for them, Kai was a tad upset, during the high winds we have had lately, Buddy's tail was caught in a door that slammed shut, and lost a lot of fur and skin pulling it out before Kai could open it, so a trip to the vets and £1,800 later Buddy, is booked to go in for some surgery and the start of a regime of keeping the exposed tail infection free, poor Buddy, after arriving home and our evening meal a Outback Opal Hunters and Deadliest Catch, as there was not a Midsomer Murder this evening a film, 

 a totally OTT movie, Van Helsing, we had seen it before but not for some time, an all action special effects treat, the Vatican sends the monster hunter and his ally, Carl to Transylvania, they have been sent to this land to stop the powerful Count Dracula, but a werewolf is involved, who is it? after which Diana was off to bed, the early start catching up on her, I watched a Bangers & Cash before I too was off to bed.
