I went to Charlecote this morning – sans R, unfortunately, because by the time we’d clocked that it was half-term, and that we’d therefore need to book, there was precisely one ticket available for the entire week, which (at his … Continued

It was a fairly miserable day, weather-wise, but R had a strong urge to be out and about, so we created some errands as an excuse for going to Stratford and walking up and down the river. It was dark … Continued

Autumn Abbey

It wasn’t the best day for being out and about, being blustery and rainy, but I’m trying to keep moving – for the sake of my mental wellbeing as much as my physical health – so when R went to … Continued

Another Monday, another WHAT???!!! o’clock appointment at Stratford Hospital, this time for a scan. The joy of being old middle-aged, with a long-term medical condition…. Reasons to be grateful however: firstly, it got me up and out of the house … Continued

I had a few candidates for tonight’s post, including some quite nice fungus that I found in the garden this morning, and a handsome little orb-weaver spider. In the end I’ve chosen this female Myathropa florea, feeding on ivy, because … Continued

My back was still sore this morning, but improving, and by lunchtime I thought I was up to doing something useful, so I took a net and went to skim the wildlife pond of fallen leaves. The weather forecast had … Continued
