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 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 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.

April 16th – Small

The pressure on people to ‘spoil’ loved ones with lavish gifts is immense. But over the past few weeks we have seen thatContinue reading “April 16th – Small”

April 15th – The Lockdown Garden

So the little garden stream project is nearly complete, with just a few finishing touches required. We’ve been talking about a water feature for a while, but last year we thought we’d be selling the house and so didn’t want to do much apart from basic maintenance. It has been named as ‘The Lockdown Garden’Continue reading “April 15th – The Lockdown Garden”

April 8th – More memories

So no amazing photos from today, and so I dug through some old photos. This photo was taken at East Woodlands 10 years ago. It is a favourite walk of ours, especially at this time of the year, with Bluebells everywhere. They may well be over by the time the lock down has lifted, butContinue reading “April 8th – More memories”
