Posted on Wed, 01 Feb 2023

We certainly are blessed, Jenny. Sometimes I wonder why we go to such lengths to make our own entertainment when all thise is just outside, it's a shame many children don't have much access to nature and this world in luminosity.

A beautiful little tree holds

Posted on Sat, 16 Jul 2022

A beautiful little tree holds so much promise for the future as long as we respect it. I often think of what those great old oak trees have witnessed in their lifetimes. We could really do with some rumbles of thunder and a good soaking but the...

This is like a short holiday

Posted on Thu, 30 Jun 2022

This is like a short holiday and just what I needed to read today. I'm glad you didn't cut it short. I could feel the heat from the sandstone and imagine the long grasses clinging. 'No time for regrets'. This is one to revisit.

Posted on Mon, 28 Mar 2022

I can imagine how all those soft colours blend together beneath the spring sunshine. It's lovely to see the sheep and lambs in Wales but I can't help wondering if they will become a rarer sight with changing consumer habits and increasing...

You've painted quite a cold

Posted on Tue, 22 Feb 2022

You've painted quite a cold picture of our modern towns here, the combination of the weather, the ever increasing number of empty shops, the enduring problem with homelessness and the facelessness of facemasks. I do worry about the future with...
