No posting is complete without a pic of our beautiful Araya xx
A very proud granddad xx
Araya seems to have grown each week when we see her, nearly sitting up now and very, very vocal (with no volume control !) She is absolutely gorgeous xx
Whitethroat
Home grown tomatoes, a harvest every day xx
A couple of pairs of stonechats on one of our local walks
Two spotted flycatchers this morning, by the time we had come back along the path they had long gone
It's good to have a son that's a joiner as we have a steady stream of waste wood that arrives by the van full. Good for the fire in the winter, we have already started the log pile. But sometimes the wood is too good to burn. 5 planters were knocked up this afternoon much to the delight of Pixi who couldn't wait to have an afternoon siesta in one ! These would cost a small fortune at the garden centre !
The pectoral sandpiper is still from Marshlands Hide at Blacktoft Sands
A family of three kestrels were having a bath, cooling in this stifling weather.
A lovely walk in our local forest xx
Freshly cut flowers from our garden that Simon takes for Lucy xx
Our dahlias have been absolutely spectacular this year. Simon is already planning the tubs for next year.
Simon makes all his own compost, saves us a fortune and is helping to save the world !
Here he has a bucket of compost from a previous session, soil and gravel and this makes up our bulb compost.
And last but not least......the best fish and chips ! Johnsons of Gainsborough on Ropery Road. Highly recommended and flipping delicious. A jumbo haddock to die for.........just look at them !!
