If you have, or have ever owned a Flatcoat Retriever you’ll recognise this classic (certainly not classy) sleeping pose. It’s a good job our lounge is a fair size to have 2 sofas otherwise we’d be sitting on the floor. Callie is currently out for the count, and snoring her head off, but I’m sureContinue reading “April 29th – dying fly…”

April 28th – Rain
Well, today (in the UK) we had rain for the first time in ages. I took today’s picture between showers to cheer us up. Our clematis is looking lovely at the moment, despite the dreary weather. I know our friends on the farms and water companies desperately needed the rain that came today after aContinue reading “April 28th – Rain”
April 27th – Bath-time….
This little chap seems to like our new stream. He (or she), had quite a few dips this morning. We love looking at the wildlife in the garden, and the birds seem quite comfortable even with us walking around, but this is probably due to them getting huge amounts of food constantly.
April 26th – Lockdown thoughts
Not the best photo in the world but seeing a plane in the sky this afternoon seemed like a rare sight these lock-down days. As someone that cares about the planet, seeing less aeroplanes is a good thing. But on the other hand I love travel, and also having step son who is a pilotContinue reading “April 26th – Lockdown thoughts”
April 25th – Helpers?
Another baking hot day, and you would think that the 4 legged children would want to lay in the shade being black, but oh no, they decided to ‘help’ me in the garden. This ‘help’ consisted of stealing tools; sitting on me; checking the screwdriver whilst in use; removing sweat from my face with theirContinue reading “April 25th – Helpers?”
April 24th – choices….
Today’s post is about one of my favourite tipples…. Gin. There are so many excellent gins on the market at the moment, and when you multiply that by the different tonics, plus garnishes the choice of drinks are vast. I tend to always try gins neat before deciding what tonic to add. If the neatContinue reading “April 24th – choices….”
April 23rd – Memories
A lazy day, slobbing in the garden today due to the fabulous weather we have in the UK at the moment, but I looked through some old photos of this time last year and came across the photo below. It was another fab day, albeit not so warm, but we went on a great walkContinue reading “April 23rd – Memories”
April 22th – Symbolic
Today’s photo was taken whilst I was out walking the hounds and my mind was off wandering in it’s own weird way (Sorry in advance). My thought was: ‘If some of the seeded dandelions represent people with virus like covid-19, they would be safe to walk by but if the wind blew and the seedContinue reading “April 22th – Symbolic”
April 21st – Another blooming lovely day
Not too much to say today, but hopefully a nice picture for you. This was taken whilst taking the dogs out earlier. The blossom and blue skies definitely helps lift ones spirits. Imagine if we had to endure lockdown during mid winter, with cold weather and grey skies. Let’s all stay home, stay safe andContinue reading “April 21st – Another blooming lovely day”
April 20th – What so you see?
Today’s photo, captured on my phone, could quite possibly be the worst photo I have ever taken. You can’t really see what it is…… Which actually is the point of today’s post. Confused? Thought so …. Let me explain…. Whilst on my walk with the 4 legged children today, I ‘safely’ saw/passed a few folkContinue reading “April 20th – What so you see?”
