Pollok Country Park

Last weekend we went to Pollok Country Park in Glasgow for a picnic day out.

Pollok hosts a fleet of clydesdales owned by the council including Duke, one of the two models for the Kelpies. They were grazing in a field by the river and roaming in the water itself. Lovely horses!

This funny face was in good spirits for once. It feels like most days she is grumpy over her teeth these days. 9-12 months sucks!

We had our picnic by the river with the wonderful Pollok house in the background.

Sandy’s day was made with finding “Thomas’s tunnel” as he is VERY into thomas the tank engine at present.

Here was the first failed attempt at roslyn’s nap. But she did finally doze off and we went for a wander in the woods.

There were so many logs to climb so Sandy was in his element.

No need for us to attach any wishes to the tree as at present we don’t find ourselves wanting for anything…
