Today’s guest picture is another from Laura in Michigan. It shows St. Joseph Lighthouse, St. Joseph, 20 miles from where she lives. Her husband cycles there and back she tells me. It certainly looks worth visiting. We had a day without rain, wind or sun. Meteorologically it was a low scoring dull day. Mrs TootlepedalContinue reading “Lace up”

Upside
Today’s guest picture is another from our son Tony. I used an old picture of his yesterday and but this lovely scene from the Costa del East Wemyss, where the sun always shines, was taken today. In a break with tradition, I looked out of my upstairs window at the birds at breakfast time. TheContinue reading “Upside”
A late tour
Today’s guest picture comes from Paul’s Lake District trip. He found the locals were looking at the visitors just as hard as the visitors were looking at the scenery. We had a rather curious day here. It was dry and occasionally sunny but there was brisk north wind blowing and it was extremely chilly forContinue reading “A late tour”
Presents from above
Today’s guest picture comes from my recorder playing friend Susan. She works in Carlisle and had to take the bus to work today as access to her car parking space was impossible. The lake on the right of the picture is in fact a riverside park and only a temporary lake. They may have hadContinue reading “Presents from above”
Norwegian weather
Today’s guest post is another from Joyce’s Bermuda collection. As well as glorious beaches she visited the zoo at Flatt Island where she found this lovely lemur. When we woke up, we were very pleased to find the Norwegian weather forecast had been reliable and we had a second sunny day in succession. What wasContinue reading “Norwegian weather”
A small step
Today’s guest picture is another from our son Tony and the kingdom of everlasting sunshine, East Wemyss. If you look closely, you might see a seal on the rock in the foreground and perhaps a cormorant too. After our recent sunny spell, we went back to rather grey and gloomy today, but the silver liningContinue reading “A small step”
A pleasant surprise
Today’s guest picture was sent to me by my sister Mary. She went to the Haynes International Motor museum in Yeovil with her friend Venetia, and her eye was caught by this shiny Morris Oxford 6 saloon from 1930. I got up intending to have a quick breakfast and go cycling but like so manyContinue reading “A pleasant surprise”
Crotchets and crochet
Today’s guest picture comes from my ex colleague Marjorie who sent me this picture of a misty Schiehallion taken during her highland break over the festive season. We woke to another chilly grey day here but the weather forecast suggested that a little sunshine might be available in the afternoon. This turned out to beContinue reading “Crotchets and crochet”
Keeping cool
Today’s guest picture from my brother Andrew shows what was on the other side of the lake at Locko Park. It was zero degrees when we got up and -1 when I came to write this post. In between it crept up to +1 in the middle of the day. I didn’t go cycling. IContinue reading “Keeping cool”
Uphill work
Today’s guest picture is from our son Tony and shows that the temperature was lower in Fife than it was here this morning. We had been promised a day of freezing fog so it was a pleasant surprise to find no fog and a temperature of two degrees above zero when we got up. ItContinue reading “Uphill work”
