    I've got one of those sack barrows GD,so I'll use that. Didn't when I moved the though...image

    My back's wrecked anyway so I hardly notice it any more!  image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Ireland. Could be nice. You never can tell. I'm going to take my camera to photograph Irish weeds. Plenty of them everywhere. Plenty of moss and lichen and rain. 

    Had a look at the light pollution map. It would be nice to see stars again. I remember holidays in Caithness where the night sky was white with black spots. The London sky is orangeimage

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Oooh - love a bit of lichen B3 image

    It's all that good clean air - unlike that polluted stuff in the south....image

    We have a little on the pavements and old trees but I suspect , to the experts, it would be the boring stuff. I rejoice in my ignorance.image

    My garden is getting untidy and blousy now.

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Amazing as always Busy.I think I'll aim for untidy and blousy at that rate! Love the reds...are they helenium? (my IDs are a bit hit and miss still).

    B3 what do you mean you never know? Haven't you been listening to me all these months??? If you like a good black sky you're coming to the right place. Millions of stars here. People have been known to fall over backwards just gaping!!! image It's easier if you lie down and look...less chance of injury!

    My mum lives in a house with the last street light in the town right outside the front garden. They replaced it a couple of years ago and I reckon you could see it from the moon! 

    Starry sky will involve an expedition

    Where are you PP?

    It's the heleniums. I've never seen that colour and they're lovely.

    I'm in Fermanagh in the West of Norn Iron. 

    I hate to say it B3 but pack a Paca-mac and a rainmate. There's been the odd wee shower lately. image Flip flops are better than socks and shoes (feet are easier to dry). image Where are you heading?
