Today’s guest picture comes from my sister Caroline. She has just had a short holiday on the Isle of Wight, and found a sunny day to visit Ventnor Botanical Gardens. We had a warm day here, with a lot of excellent sunshine and light winds. It would have been the perfect day for a longContinue reading “Sunshine and song”

A change in the weather
Today’s guest picture comes from my Canonbie friend Simon. He is working at the Belfry golf course at the moment, and sent me this pleasant view of a place where you definitely don’t want to put your golf ball. After another chilly night, we woke to another dry day here. It was cloudier than recentContinue reading “A change in the weather”

If you were out of the wind, everything in the garden was lovely andContinue reading “A walk and some chips”

Today’s guest picture is a Spanish bench. Dropscone doesn’t reveal whether he actually sat on it or merely photographed it during his recent holiday in Majorca. There was no sitting around for me today after breakfast as I was anxious to get a short pedal in before the wind got too frisky. It was briskContinue reading “No wonder he’s grumpy”
Into every life a little rain must fall
Today’s guest picture is another from my brother’s visit to Flamborough Head. As well as seeing gannets and a puffin, he witnessed a dramatic sea rescue of a woman who had got into difficulties in the sea. It needed a brave onlooker who plunged into the sea, a life boat and a helicopter. Here theContinue reading “Into every life a little rain must fall”
