Today’s picture is of a spiders web we saw covered in morning dew whilst in the New Forest over the weekend. I weirdly thought of the song “I swallowed a spider to catch the fly” Click the link if you haven’t heard it before, but I warn you, once it’s in your head it’s difficultContinue reading “September 14th – visual associations….”

September 7th – Park run
Our 4 legged children wasn’t sure about being held by this statue, erected to celebrate the park runs held here. I used to run until my knee decided to play up. I really miss the physical and mental benefits of running, but have found that spin classes give me the same buzz and doesn’t damageContinue reading “September 7th – Park run”

September 6th – Injuries…..
Today’s picture is of a label and a bit tongue in cheek. I managed to injure my left index finger back in June, and although it’s hardly going to make any headlines, it has been painful when I bend it. Anyway, after another X-ray, it appears that it is mainly soft tissue damage and IContinue reading “September 6th – Injuries…..”
September 5th – don’t throw food away…
We had a few sad looking vegetables in the fridge, and so my clever wife made a delicious soup. Carrots, peppers, sweet potato, cumin, paprika, cannellini beans, leaks, tomatoes and courgettes, with some chili oil were thrown in the soup maker and the result was fab, mopped up with some warm bread. When the kidsContinue reading “September 5th – don’t throw food away…”

Dad’s turn to cook again as Mum was doing her classes, but a request was made for Spinach pancakes (recipe here). They were pretty good, but as normal I cooked too many, so I wondered what to do with the spares??? Well, the dogs always have a chew after our dinner and join us toContinue reading “September 1st – A different treat…”
August 31st – Fungi
An amazing Fungi seen on a tree whilst playing golf this afternoon. I am pretty sure it is a bracket fungi, but there are so many different types. Bracket fungi feed on wood, either as living trees or dead logs, and the brackets are their fruiting bodies. These form shelf-like structures singly or in groupsContinue reading “August 31st – Fungi”
August 27th – Happy Birthday Alfie
Alfie turned 2 today, and he was rather taken with his portrait given to his Mum for her birthday. As mentioned in previous posts, he is a real character and constantly makes us laugh with his antics, and constant jabbering, although his best days start with a walk, followed by food, washed down with coffee,Continue reading “August 27th – Happy Birthday Alfie”
August 26th – When in Cornwall…..
A pasty must be sampled…. We went on one of our favourite woofer walks, an easy circular walk starting in Mawgan Porth, and heading in land to St Mawgan, with the customary stop for coffee on the footpath and the lunch at The Falcon Inn in St Mawgan. Cornish pasties originated as portable lunches for tinContinue reading “August 26th – When in Cornwall…..”
