When R and I went to Broadway this morning so that I could exchange a faulty item at OKA, there was some dark and threatening weather moving northward over the Cotswold scarp, and spilling down the Edge towards the village. … Continued

I had a busy day today, encompassing a supermarket dash, a walk in Stratford, some domestic engineering, a little cooking, and a present-wrapping session with R. I’m quite tired now, but hopeful that the fact I was able to get … Continued

If photography means ‘drawing with light’, I feel there should be another word for playing with light, but I’m no Greek scholar, and I can’t construct one. I’m sure you get what I’m saying though: this photo isn’t meant to … Continued

The body’s a funny old thing, isn’t it? This morning I was crawling round the house, shivering, head aching, throat sore, skin crawling. And whinging, of course, as you’d probably expect. And then by this afternoon, I wasn’t. It seemed … Continued

Late last night I checked my emails for the last time before closing everything down and going to bed, and found an email that had just come in from the NHS, confirming that the CV-19 test I took on Friday … Continued

Today’s Stratford-upon-Avon tufted duck count: 4. Which isn’t as high as I’d like, but double the number there were a couple of days ago. The Thursday boys are continuing their bromance, sticking close together and clearly acting as each other’s … Continued

Whenever I see a cob flaring his wings like this I stand ready with the camera, in case he’s about to go into meltdown; they tend to be more reactive during the breeding season, but they can lose their tempers … Continued
