Today’s guest picture comes from our daughter Annie. She tells us that our granddaughter Evie has just made two new friends. After yesterday’s hint of warmth, we were back to grey and cold again today, but once again it didn’t rain which was a blessing. Mrs Tootlepedal spent most of the day at a stitchingContinue reading “So far and no further”

Driven to pedalling
Today’s guest picture shows the sort of thing that you see if you live in the middle of a big city. Our daughter Annie took it in her London garden. We had a lovely morning here, bright and sunny and not too much wind at all. We had a moorland morning as Mrs Tootlepedal wentContinue reading “Driven to pedalling”
Over the hill
Today’s composite guest picture comes from my Welsh correspondent, Keiron. He is waiting to get his bike fixed, so in the meantime he went out on a walk to look for trees. He found these two. We were promised a fine day here, and when I looked out of the bedroom window, I saw aContinue reading “Over the hill”

I almost wrote that we had another frosty night followed by a sunny day our of sheer force of habit, but as it happened, we didn’t have a frosty night at all,Continue reading “Taking to the hills”

Today started very oddly when I woke up realising that I had just had a good night’s sleep. This was so unusual that it took me until Dropscone arrived with Friday treacle sconesContinue reading “Going wild”
Another floral feast
Today’s guest picture comes from my Somerset correspondent, Venetia, who saw something a bit bigger than a chaffinch out of her kitchen window. The weather people seem to take a sort of morbid pleasure in making our flesh creep with forecasts of doom and gloom. Once again they were overly pessimistic and, having prepared ourselvesContinue reading “Another floral feast”
The first day of autumn
Today’s guest picture is another view from a walk on the veldt which was kindly sent to me by Tom from South Africa. He was excited by the fact the the valley bottom is covered in vineyards. Mrs Tootlepedal got up early and disappeared in an Edinburgh direction. She was lending a hand with theContinue reading “The first day of autumn”
Mob handed
Today’s picture shows my brother Andrew at Pop’s View in NZ. It was taken by my sister Susan on her phone. Who needs a camera? We didn’t have quite the same mountains to look at here today, but we did have some excellent sunshine. It was still freezing when we got up but the sunshineContinue reading “Mob handed”
