Today’s picture shows a new flower. It’s a rather small sunflower against a background of zebra grass. It was another fine morning but I had tasks to do. I dropped stuff off at the Archive Centre. I had forgotten that it was Friday and so I inadvertently interrupted the people who were reading in theContinue reading “A grand night out”

Dry run
Today’s picture shows a rose that I had been looking forward to seeing, showing the worst of the recent rain. I woke up and looked out of the window and the sun was shining. Hooray. I had thought of doing a long ride but a quick shower of rain after breakfast and a look atContinue reading “Dry run”

If you interested in the ramifications of the LockerbieContinue reading “Watching brief”
Black and blue
Today’s picture was sent to me by Gavin who saw this adder on Warbla. Another unseasonably fine but very welcome day greeted us this morning and Dropscone and I enjoyed a pleasant run round the morning route. We weren’t quite as fast as yesterday but we were fast enough to be able to enjoy ourContinue reading “Black and blue”
