Haha, this one just makes me smile... I don't think his tongue could be any longer :) We were in the middle of a long walk Barney, Dilly and I went on a few days before I left for France. I only meant to have a short walk, on one of the smaller hills in the background of this pic but wonderful weather meant I was reluctant to go home. We ended up staying out hours longer than I'd planned, eventually walking (or in Barney's case, loping) up to the highest point of the Malverns (not that high - around 1,300ft). I love walking on the hills of course, but even seeing them from a distance makes me happy... They're the first thing I look for when coming home: from miles away you can spot them rising in an orderly line out of the flood plains of Worcestershire, it's a nice sight when you've been away for awhile :)
Barney was ecstatically happy to see me (the feeling was mutual!) when I arrived this afternoon. He was already bounding down the hall as I turned the key and opened the front door. I had to stand outside for 10 minutes while he just leaped up and down, tripping on my suitcase, crashing into my legs, throwing himself on the floor in a wriggling heap and just as I reached down to pat him, leaping up again, to lick my face! When I finally got inside he pounced on his kong, proudly prancing back to show me, shaking his head ferociously and doing a funny little dance with his front paws. Finally, he led the way back to the garden, tail curled jauntily over his back and a cheeky grin on his face that was an invitation (or perhaps demand is the right term) for play :) I couldn't resist...
It's lovely having such a fantastic welcome home but I'm glad I've got no plans to for a long holiday or visit with relatives soon - I hate saying goodbye to him - especially as he knows what a suitcase is. Whenever I bring the case downstairs, he immediately goes into sulk mode (he has bitter experience with me bringing my case down and then leaving for university for 3 months). Unless I'm gathering his bowls, leads, toys etc he will go very quiet and subdued. I call him and he won't come, he just stares at the suitcase, then at me and stays where he is, head on his paws. It is a truly pitiful sight and one that breaks my heart (even though I know, after a day of sulking he's back to his happy self!!) Yes, I had a lovely time but I'm glad to be back and I think Barney's pretty pleased too :)

...chills my soul right to the marrow.

No, not MY home... but chilled just the same. I love the white on white.
Looking to St. Helens from the highest point in Merseyside, Billinge Lump. The collection of chimneys and towers in the middle left is Pilkington's Greengate float glass plant. The steaming pair of chimneys to the right was once Pilkington's fibreglass plant but is now operated by Knauf. In between can be seen the tower and green dome of Lowe House church.
The same tulips as last week, but they are now opened, and I thought they would make a good pic of the day as I still hadn't taken anything and it was getting late in the day. In the background you can see some of the plants my daughter planted, tomatoes, and other vegetables.

Phoenix, Arizona - 2012.
Vit and Sean were both very close.
The previous photo was the coffee table with reflections of the colored glass in my window.
This photo was taken in May of 2011, this is a photo of my home in Collingwood.
I have recently come to Ontario to be with my daughter, my family still living there. I received news this morning that my home was on fire. I am told now that it has completely burned to the ground and just watched the video of them excavating it.
I will at some point catch up with you all, but I am taking a short break to digest this news, everyone is safe including my kitty, although we are waiting word on one other kitty that belonged to my son.
Love to all of you and thank you for all your support ~

Before the light escapes me
To be at your side
That's where the journey takes me’
The sun sets on 1st January 2019 and reflects on the side window of 43208.
43208 made it to York before dark, having arrived at 15:29 with the 13:06 from London King’s Cross.
It would retrace its steps, departing at 16:03 for London, arriving there at 18:27.
From London it would head back out to Lincoln at 19:06, arriving there at 21:01.
From Lincoln, the train would make its final journey of the day at 21:14 and head empty to Leeds Neville Hill depot, arriving at 23:59, quite definitely not before dark!
I’ve always had mixed feelings about the HST, they did finish off the Deltics, something that I can never forgive. That said, I think they saved the Inter-City business during the 1980s and 40 years front line service is quite an achievement.

Raahon ko raahi batayenge saathi hum, aisa hoga safar.
Ki ujla hi ujla shehar hoga jismein, hum tum banayenge ghar.
These beautiful lyrics are from a hindi composition by Piyush Mishra called ghar which means home. And I think they go perfectly in sync with the photograph which has Delhi’s most iconic specimen of architecture in the background. Delhi may be a lot of things, we’ve already named it many names, but it’s still our city, it’s still our home, ghar. This was clicked at the Qutub Minar Complex, New Delhi, India.

Homer OD'd on beer and donuts. mmmmm.....donuts. Inspiration by a few different cakes found here and there. Donut and chair are cake. I wanted to add some more beer cans and donuts scattered about, but as I was working on it at 11 last night, I found out that the customer wanted it at 7:30 a.m. the next day. I threw in the towel at around 1:30 a.m.
Wow!! #6 explore!
