I will be away

I don't expect any visitors as I have been awful about blogging recently. Every day I've intended to take some pictures of the flowers appearing in the garden.. and haven't done so. Finally - I went out at dusk today and took some, of course some of the flowers were already asleep for the night, but here is a selection. I have put some more on the other blog as I did take a few... LOL
Anyhow, hope you like them and see you in a couple of weeks when I get back from visiting my Dad in Cyprus. Yippee! I can't wait to see him and Jenny.
See you all

visiting and serendipity

I have not been visiting much recently - but today went to one of the greatest art blogs - that of Alfonso Brezmes. He is so inspiring. Do take a look at him at his paradise under construction

while visiting I followed on of his links, always a sensible option and went here

Westward Ho!

This strange place was named after a book. My mother decided she would like to go there on her birthday and we were intending to walk around and have a light lunch there. When we arrived, the place sort of didn't materialise. It does look interesting from the Burrows and through the pouring rain/hail/sleet - so here are a few pics to make you glad you don't live in misty moisty North Devon, next to the ocean. The snow is on Exmoor - until we started on our day out, we didn't realise it had been snowing, as Ilfracombe is a bit warmer, for no apparent reason. Another time, I'll go when it is sunny and see if it is all more attractive. We were very glad to get back in the car and head for Appledore. Pics to follow. Also quite damp....

Mum's 77th birthday

My Mum wanted to go to Westward Ho! on her birthday.
Westward Ho! is not very interesting. We went to the Burrows and looked at the sea in a hailstorm. Which of these pictures do you like?
