The first day of Autumn
So today is the first day of Autumn in the meteorological sense at least. I prefer to go with the equinoxes and won’t really feel it’s Autumn until 21 September. That said today was not very inspiring. After a warm and rather cloudy start it was wet for most of the day. Here are a…
Read MoreAbsolute rubbish
This is not the first time that I’ve posted pictures of rubbish in the verges. Over the years since I’ve been doing my morning walk I’ve seen beds, sofas, computers, fridges, car seats as well as the usual litter that people chuck out of their cars into the verges. I am always at a loss…
Read MoreHuzzah for the great British bake off
Huzzah the Great British Bake Off is back on our screens! I have to admit that I watch very little telly these days – probably because I spend far too much time than I should in front of my computer – but last year I (like most of of the country) I became completely hooked on GBBO (as…
Read MoreCarpe diem
Today started at about 12.10am when our son woke me from that deep early night sleep to say that Robin Williams was dead. I didn’t quite believe it until the morning when the early morning Radio confirmed his late night whispers. Oh captain oh my captain… Just over 12 hours later we were at the Woodland Burial at…
Read MoreMorning walk – bright and breezy
After the wild, wet and windy weather yesterday from the sting in the tail of hurricane Bertha it was very fresh and breezy this morning giving rise to bright and clear light. It was one of those skies where the clouds looked 3D and created crazy shapes – that could suddenly look like an elephant…
Read MoreHello Bertha!
Goodness me what a wet and windy Summer Sunday! The remnants of hurricane Bertha are here so it’s off to the kitchen to cook up something nice I think!
Read MoreSchool’s out…
When you have children there are two ends to the year – one at the end of December – following days of over indulgence – and the other sometime near the end of July when the school year comes to a close. Nowadays we only have one of our offspring left at school as our…
Read MoreWhere do you live?
I came across this folk tale this morning on a Blog that I was reading as I sipped my early morning tea in bed. It is very pertinent at the moment so I thought that I would share it along with some of my recent morning walk pictures taken on the out skirts of our…
Read MoreMorning walk – the last day of June
Goodness me it the end of June already so that means that half the year has gone! After a busy day yesterday with two photography jobs I completely forgot to put my mobile phone on charge this morning so when it came to my morning walk I was faced with the prospect of going out…
Read MoreFeta and lemon dip
This feta and lemon dip is lovely and tasty! It is salty, lemony, with a hint of hotness and perfect on salads, on new potatoes, with pittas or as a dip at a summer buffet. The inspiration for the recipe came from Sweet Paul (one of my absolute favourite food Bloggers! – check out his…
Read MoreWhat a bad blogger I am…
My computer and phone are groaning with photos and yet I haven’t blogged for ages. So here is a very random selection from my phone from today. I have no idea what the one above is – a sort of random fumbling mistake I think but it looks a bit arty! The rest are from…
Read MoreHerby cheese scones
You can’t beat a good scone!! I’m particularly partial to a cheese one – there’s something so lovely about their soft warm cheesiness dripping with butter! This is a very straightforward recipe but with the addition of a lovely herby mixture that just adds a top note to the flavour. My favourite is a pizza…
