Sumo is 6

Sumo enjoyed his sixth birthday on the boat. We're glad he doesn't have to contend with the steep back garden steps anymore. Or suffer next door's two cats winding him up. He seems to be very relaxed and happy afloat. The same as us.

Took him for a nice afternoon walk on the nature reserve. Where the concrete factory store their aggregate under the lake. Unfortunately, we walked round the wrong way, and ended up close to the sewage treatment works. Which was a bit whiffy. But it is a lovely peaceful place, though.
