Living Arrows - There's no such thing as a Gruffalo

We took a stroll down the side of the canal on Sunday with the sun in the sky and Daddy off for the day. It was really lovely just slowly wandering and taking in the sights.  Luca pointed out all the ducks and the swans and every single "big boat" he saw.  One of the canal boat owners is a carpenter or something and has made some little wooden sculptures that are scattered around his boat. There are meerkats, a gorilla and an elephant as well as a couple of Gruffalo hidden in the trees.  Luca really liked him but he was a little dubious as to how safe he was being left near the Gruffalo so needed Daddy to keep him safe.
