At Pashley Manor Gardens you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.

a summer tradition and treat ....my long-delayed diet will just have to wait a bit longer ....LoL !
have a peachy Sunday :-)
When I switched to Linux, the tracking system on my equatorial mount stopped working (it was also very basic and never worked perfectly). So I decided to recycle the reusable components and build a homemade one. In Argentina, a GoTo system for an EQ3 mount like mine costs around $1000 USD, so making a homemade one was worthwhile. With the help of the AI assistant Copilot and after watching some YouTube tutorials, I acquired an ESP32S microcontroller, two DRV8825 drivers, a 12V input/5V output step-down power supply, some capacitors, a PCB, and some cables for the NEMA17 motors (I reused the motors, among other things, and lengthened the cables since the old ones were too short). And that was it! I spent about $50 USD on this! The difference is amazing! I downloaded the OnStep project (authored by Howard Dutton), which is open source (github.com/hjd1964/OnStep), and compiled a minimal version for now. I assembled everything in a small box that used to be a car first-aid kit, haha! Controlled from KStars with INDI/Ekos for Linux, it turned out to be very functional and complete. Although I still need to test it at night with Plate Solving for GoTo, today I was able to do a very basic test, pointing it at the Sun, as you can see in the video.
My Maksutov-Cassegrain f/15 telescope and Player One Neptune-M camera are mounted there, which provides significant magnification, and although I did an indoor test with a basic polar alignment, my OnStep system worked wonderfully! I am very pleased with the work done and I encourage those who need a GoTo system to make one themselves, because although it involves some work, the cost is significantly less than buying one or having one made, and the learning experience is invaluable.

Both my grandmothers sewed - homemade treasures from the heart, hand crafted with love.
This quilt my maternal grandmother made and gifted to my parents as a wedding gift in the 50s.
After Mom moved to assisted living, she would look at the quilt and remember her Mama.
While walking along a local river we came across a tree that had been gnawed on by beavers. Those shavings reminded me of feathers so we collected a small bag-full and used them to create bird sculptures. My grand kids used a glue gun to layer the wood chips over a large paper egg (used as a body form). Eyes were made of either a couple of beads or small clam shells from the river shore.
i think they're ashtrays :P i dont really know XD - street of belgium :P -

My old homemade weather vane with a propeller. 45 years in the open air! It is even impossible to imagine how many turns it made during this time.
Recently I had to repair it for the first time. New neighbors from Armenia have appeared. Their children have grown up and now they have a new fun - shooting at a target with an air rifle. The weather vane was in the line of fire. First, the children shot off one blade from the propeller, then the second. But the children certainly did not admit it. I had to remove the weather vane from the line of fire, repair it and at the same time do some profilactic work.
Four bearings in an oil bath. Two vertical and two horizontal on a spring suspension. 45 years in the open air and everything is as new and the oil has not thickened. All materials are made in the USSR (not in China). Many years ago, the Tupolev design bureau dismantled (demolition) an old analog computer that in real time simulated the flight of first Soviet TU-104 passenger jet.
My older sister was working there at that time. She brought me some unnecessary parts as toys. She didn't even know what they could be used for. The computer occupied an entire building and it was just a pity for my sister to watch how bulldozers crush and send to the landfill mountains of highly precision parts made of the best materials: miniature electric motors, switches, etc.
I made this delicious pie with homegrown blackberries from my son's garden.
Happy Birthday, Peter! Enjoy!

A hand-tied fishing fly. I forgot to ask my husband what it’s called. If I find out, I’ll add the name later.
Having a meal at the Bakaliko Taverna in the evening, this lad sailed past us on his homemade boat. I think he was going fishing but I'm not sure how successful his trip was unfortunately.
Panettone is an Italian Sweet Bread. I decided to make some and will make another loaf with modifications. This tasted good.
Muffins, to stave off the Beast from the East!
Recipe:
1 egg
1 cup of white yoghurt (I used low/no fat greek)
1/3 cup of oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix all in a bowl then add the following:
Preheat oven to 190c
2 cups of plain flour
1/2 cup sugar (I used half spoon sugar)
1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
------------
Extra: Add chocolate chips, or blueberries, or whatever you like!
Bake for 18 mins
I find this fills out a dozen muffin cases.
I FINALLY came up with an idea to use the old pan lids that we seem to have accrued here. Actually, many of them came in boxes of "junk" from the auctions. It struck me last weekend that they could go into the old fruit and veggie holders that everybody used to have, that hang. Some of the pan lids JUST fit! Now if only the birds will discover this!
I DID test to be sure the rims weren't hot, in case they might burn birdie feet in the heat. They seem okay for now, at our 81F degrees and full sun. I do have a plan to paint the edges in case hotter temps change that! :)
Homemade scones, made yesterday, and Bramble Jam, made last week .... I have to be honest and say that I didn't make either of them, but I will probably eat most!!
