Joyful, frugal celebration!

Her ring was old, her grandma’s gold; her love, commitment new and true; her dress she’d had to borrow … no sop to superstition, or slavish following of tradition – just

Amazing Grace!

[Continuing the hymn-for-Sundays series] Grace, powerful, undeserved: the favour, gifts of God – though all we do he has observed, our every word has … He is the Gardener …

Thank you. It was just that

Posted on Thu, 22 Feb 2024

Thank you. It was just that last part we had to scramble up as there is a carpark below (full of puddles and potholes!). The 'giant golf ball' can be seen from afar (as a tiny golf ball catching the sun!) looking like an observatory but I think...

Posted on Wed, 21 Feb 2024

I found your poem and that of Kipling (which I hadn't read before) interesting and descriptive of the pull of the open space (I imagine a similar pull felt often by many to be up in mountainous widlerness) and the conflict of danger and...

Posted on Fri, 16 Feb 2024

What a wonderful walk! And that because you have eyes to see, and in such description! (I had not heard the word 'claggy' before. Looked it up as I thought you had invented it, like my sinky!). You bring to life the feeling of fresh breezy air...

Bent on putting people off

Posted on Thu, 15 Feb 2024

Bent on putting people off their food? People seem very varied in their sensitivity to scents and smells. When we used to pcinic when out walking my husband used to want me to sit down-wind when eating my much beloved banana as he said it...

Posted on Mon, 12 Feb 2024

Evocative. Reminds of 'Sometimes I sits and thinks, and sometimes I just sits' which my mother was fond of quoting. Those without baths must find another haven for just stopping off gird if only for a few moments, like sleep. Clear the mind,...

Wow! so there's a lot of backstory and history here. I hope he's really left it behind, he still seems to know how to act hard. Rhiannon

It would be better to own up

Posted on Wed, 07 Feb 2024
