A tomato forms. I am amazed.

People keep bringing me fruit! Today is another kind of apple and bramble tart. I've added a kiwifruit for a bit of contrast. The pastry was a disaster today and I don't quite know why.

Tofu, chick peas, in a Jalfrezi sauce. Add pickles and serve on couscous. Nice 👍

I love this handsome tree. you can see that it was cut down once but had regrown from the remaining stump. A real survivor.

Slightly old milk produce this mad foam. Tasted nice though

The worst picture of the bridge ever. I provide it only for context. it's old and high and made of stone. And people throw themselves off it to their almost certain destruction from tim to time. It links Carterton and Kirkby Lonsdale.

Every family has one.

Here is the British Library. It contains many amazing treasures, including one of the original copies of Magna Carta. The building has been awarded Grade I listing, which I do not understand. However, I came to look at what is inside, and not the building.

(Then) Prince Charles described the building as looking like "an academy for secret police" and the late Sir Gerald Kaufman MP said it was "about as glamorous as a public lavatory."

The perfume was exceptional

We adopted Missy in November when she was 9 months old

Due to popular demand and availability of containers our soup can be taken out to be eaten later.

I seem to be wilting today.

*Trains were famously cancelled in England because it had snowed. Even though there were methods and equipment available to clear it, the railway company declared they could do nothing as it was "the wrong kind of snow."

My constant companions. Friends, if you like.

Sculpture trail

A friend has offered to make a bookshelf to replace this little shoe rack. I will fill it with my poetry books, I think.

Walk about a bit. What's new? Look up and be amazed.

Blackbirds are members of the thrush family, meaning they are quite happy to dwell on the ground. They are also quite calm about people being around. This one knows me well as I see him several times each day.

My lunch service had finished, so he had to make do with worms. Might be a good idea =]

These were 'finished' when I brought them home, but a spoon of sugar and a soluble aspirin in the water revived them for a while. Nothing lasts forever and now these pretty sunflowers are just a fading memory.

Some of you might know I have memory problems, hence why I write and take pictures of apparently everything. When memories fade, what is left?

Walking in the direction of the mortuary, I noticed this sign. I can't help wondering how much it cost, and why it was placed where I saw it.
