What a nice picture! I love that building...the architecture and stone walls are fantastic! I really like the setting too, so pretty. As well, the textures of the brick and stone walls is really nice to look at. And finally, the swing gate is really cool...I'd love to see it in action.

HFF!! :D

Oh THANK YOU so much for your wonderful comment about my turkey tale! It was such fun to tell. I only wish that you could be here to watch them. What a sight. :)

Thank you very much Janet. Really appreciated. Talking of turkeys, co-incidentally the bridge takes you across to some beautiful old cottages and pebbled beach and this is called Turkey Island. HFF and have a great weekend

What a charming looking place, Carol. Is it a bit low on water right now?

These are two swingin' pieces. I've never heard Robbie Williams before but WoW!

And it's always nice to hear a tune from Van Morrison and new one to me at that!

A very HFF to you and a happy weekend too! :)

Ecobird club has replied to Karen's Place club
Thank you very much Karen. Both inner and outer harbours are dry at low tide and there is significant tidal variation on this coat of up to 15m. There has been a harbour here for centuries and it was a fishing harbour until the 19th Century, when the entrance was improved to allow vessels and lock gates were added. It became a busy harbour from which timber and agricultural products were traded with South Wales in exchange for coal and limestone for use in the kilns. The present gates were installed in 1913 and nowadays the harbour is mainly used by pleasure craft.

I am pleased you liked the music. I am sorry for the late HFF and I hope you have a lovely weekend

A beautiful picture from Porlock Carole. I really must get there again this year! Love that area.
Two good music links...I once sat next to Van Morrison in a cafe in Glastonbury, but didn't know who he was 'till he had gone!! HFF and happy weekend wishes.

Ecobird club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thank you very much Rosa. Really appreciated. We were going to pop in there last weekend but ran out of time. I am pleased you liked the music. You lucky thing, - I guess you wouldn't really expect to see Van Morrison in Glastonbury, but at least you could play it cool and unimpressed!!! Belated HFF wishes and I hope you had a great weekend.
