April 16th – Small

Today’s picture of tiny cactus flowers got me thinking about the way we live our lives. We are all bombarded with marketing material on social media, TV, emails etc, especially at Christmas. 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.

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”
