Posted on Tue, 08 Jul 2025
Thank you. The photograph was taken about 9 months ago. I know it's not clear, but her legs are even thinner and more frail now, I think she had fragile bones even when young. So the warm invitation to sit on her lap, was very poignant. I think...

A lovely description of an early morning glimpse. And then the transition to the solidity of the cows, but also very special. Many town children haven't seen a cow. When you first meet them they do seem very big!...

Thought-provoking.
I know my husband found the idea difficult of losing privacy of mind when we got married. His family were very reticent, and mine were bubbly and open. But I think we had an ability to be open while yet maintaining...

Yes. It came to mind last night as the wind blew so strongly. I knew I'd heard the phrase when young, but couldn't remember the context. I've just been looking it up and it is from a poem by Minnie Louise Haskins’ on “the gate of the year”but...

A lovely scene, shorn sheep and swan family.
So graceful and maajestic as they glide along, like a royal barge expecting cheers from the bank!

Posted on Thu, 08 Aug 2024
One of my grandsons would eat little except pasta for years, but he's better now, though still liking much pasta. I think just seeing other children eat other things gradually helped and maybe cooking for himself. It seemed a 'texture' phobia a...

But the stems are worthy to hold up those flowers, and not take the praise from them! I like the 'octave' of scents and 'scale' of colours. In the spring as we drive around I love the vista of so many different shades of green, many so fresh...

A lot here to weed out, Dougie! From men trying to make money out of religious title and losing the meaning of the offer, and fighting to try to force (cf Matthew 26:53 etc) their rule and religion (the offer of true purchased salavation being so...

Fascinating! My sister and her husband are both academic linguists. We stayed at a work flat of his once and the walls were lined with books of different languages. He specialised on the learning of foreign languages. She worked, and still does...
