Dolphins Today I saw dolphins curving their way across boat strewn Matilda Bay, doing whatever dolphins do when they visit the river so far from the sea. Today I saw armour, and weapons that once held an empire at bay; and realised that my family had never thanked the Austrians for saving us - and Europe. Today I went visiting friends in the country, dropped in on Toad Hall, introduced my daughter, and met with Badger, under the Wild Wood. Today I saw a child trapped in a high tree, leap from its branches, carried by joy and a glorious confidence to the arms of his father below Today I was twitchy, then slow, and then frozen, had ‘off’ times and ‘on’ times, lost balance, lost motion and – by the way did I mention that today I saw dolphins.
