    Glad you had a lie-in, Wonky.

    I've been to Rochdale, Flumpy, years ago, My sister worked there years ago when we were young.

    We went to the village church for the first time this morning and met some very nice people. There is a gardening club in this village image

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

    I've just had eggs Benedict for breakfast. Last night we had a very good Indian meal.

    Today is a no diving day so we are lounging around . It should be illegal to make size 22 bikinis. There are a lot  of yanks  here, not surprisingly. Fortunately for them, harpooning of whales has been banned.

    Yesterday on the dive boat, the dive master gave the usual announcement. We will dive as a group until the first one gets low on air, then we will come up. I said, why couldn't we just kill them and carry on. The yanks don't get sarcasm eitherimageimage

    well I must slap on some more factor 50, see you later folks.

    A glorious little day - if a little chilly on the top image

    Hosta - that was a terrible joke. image

    My birds are paired up -  well, Dennis (robin), Denzel (blackbird) and Not Denzel (other blackbird) are anyway. Mrs Dennis appeared when I came home -  looking for more grub.  Greedy bandits...

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



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

    Wonderful pics FG.  I want to go there.    Where's my ice axe?

  • FairygirlFairygirl Posts: 55,117

    No need for one today Steve - not even crampons! Snow wasn't too deep and it was nice and soft - fresh fall yesterday.  You'd have needed it on the higher hills though. I'll put some of the other pix on the camera thread later.

    It's Glen Fruin, one of the Grahams - Beinn Chaorach -  southern end of Loch Lomond on the way to Garelochhead.  Not the bonniest hill - but you go for those views. Nice to have the only footprints on the hill too - apart from sheep and rabbits  image

    Is it too late for me to have lunch Dove? I've had the coffee from my flask, and a banana...  image

  • It's too late for lunch Fairy, all washed up and put away - but in a couple of hours we'll be having a New England Boiled Dinner - boiled bacon joint with carrots, leeks, potatoes and cabbage with parsley sauce - a big pot is simmering on the hob - plenty for all comers image
