I used to be a school librarian, I wasn't so keen on the boring stuff like terrorising small children for overdue books, but the books and inviting weird and wonderful authors and Illustrator's in to the school, now that I liked.
Treacle
This is my cat Treacle, strictly speaking she belongs to my Sons but they forgot to take her with them when they left home!
My youngest son left home five years ago and for this Treacle has never really forgiven him! She has got better in recent months in as much as she will stay in the house when he visit's, all be it not in the same room.
I've lost my a! Have you got it?
I'm not a gadget person, I'm not, but there are a few things that I would really really miss if I lost them or they broke. My Apple laptop which I have loved for a very long time, I have been known to sit and stroke it, It goes wherever I go, sadly I probably need a newer one. My camera, it's not flash in fact it's a bit broken and is held together with a hair band! I like the feel of it, it has become part of me and has been on lots of travels, I probably need a new one.
Do you like Sculpture's?
A trip to a sculpture park makes a great day out and gives lots of photo opportunities. Some of my favourite places to visit are the Cass sculpture park, Broomhill sculpture park,Hannah Peschar,The Sculpture Park in Surrey, Fresh air sculpture in Glos. Anywhere that Phillip Jackson is exhibiting, and anything that my son Sam has sculpted,the paper boots are his work.
Goodbye Christmas
The Soup, my last day with the hat!
Resting?
Have you been resting today before getting back to normal?
I considered taking down the decorations but couldn't face it, I may regret this!
We had an exploding chestnut, it's amazing how far a single chestnut can spread, and it's quite funny really once you have gotten over the shock of not actually being shot by a gunman in your house!
Happy new everything, places, people and interesting things.
I would love to be here for New Years Day, it is The Inns at mill Falls in New Hampshire, New England USA, perfect service, perfect views, twinkly lights, good food and nice coffee. Not wishing to brag but have you noticed the badge, who needs an MBE in the New Years honours list when you have one of these! If you are considering visiting New England and especially New Hampshire get in touch with me and I will bore you to death and help you with your plans.
