    After the sunny day we had on Monday yesterday Mother Nature bit us on the arse. We had 50/60mph winds most of the day with rain of biblical proportions. The weather was so bad I rang the chemist and got them to deliver my meds. It's only ¾ of a mile away

  • Sunshine for a day

    - 08 May 2015 - 4 comments
    Yesterday we had wall to wall sunshine and the ground was drying out rapidly. By late morning the front grass was still a little damp but the rear was fine for strimming. With my back in good fettle I strimmed the borders and the old wild flower patch

    A sunny day at last and a stroll to see my Mam. Cutting through the little haven I noticed more colour and a smell of blossom around,that's more like it. Cutting through by the dock museum I spied a tidy little craft in the water,it would be a great
