Spring is well on its way

The days are getting longer, it’s getting drier and warmer, which means the Spots are enjoying more time outside. Mac and Lottie are having a few days away in the Lakes, Seren has stayed at home.

The tide was a it’s highest, something we haven’t experienced before, so the Spots were totally confused, as they are used to runningContinue reading “Formby Beach”
