Hurray! Bentley's foster family is here staying for the weekend.
Its been so great having them here. I am pretty sure that this is the highlight of Bentley's life so far - getting cuddles nearly every waking second of the day and going for long walks in the forest.

We've done a lot of our normal weekend routine - just generally hanging around the back garden... kids playing with Bentley and with each other, adults sitting around talking and just enjoying the company.

Yesterday we went on an expotition to the North Pole, a place in the Ashdown Forest which we had actually not been yet. First we visited the Heffalump Trap and the memorial to AA Milne, which R&T then climbed all over.

Then we set out to find the North Pole, which is just near the stream in the bottom of this valley. As the story goes, Roo fell in and then Pooh found the North Pole which he used to rescue Roo. So in this photo below, the Hundred Acre Woods is actually on the other side of the valley on top of the hill and the North Pole is in the trees below.

At the top of the hill on the far side, we stopped to rest a bit.

Then we made it to the ice cream van just as it started to rain.
And afterwards we went to Gallipot Inn & Pub near Hartfield for a delicious Sunday dinner, which our guests treated us to.
Great!
