Read MoreDeer me….
Over the last few days we have had some new visitors – a female roe deer and her nearly grown fawn. We’ve had red deer in the garden many times, but I think these are our first roes, and they are very beautiful. Yesterday afternoon they were grazing on the back lawn (they seem to […]

Read MoreSetting sun
There were some amazing views out over the mountains as the sun went down this afternoon. I can’t make my mind up which season this area looks best in – every one of them is beautiful in its own way. Before we moved here, R and I discussed whether it would be possible to get […]

Read MoreChristmas is coming
Christmas seems to have crept up on us a bit this year – probably because work has been so busy. I’ve now managed to get most of my presents, though as usual I am struggling with getting something for R. He denies he is a difficult person to buy for – but the trouble with […]

Read MoreNice Walk around the Donich Circular this morning
R and I get up early and always try to get a walk in before we start work. Today we went round the Donich Circular to look at the waterfalls – it is a great walk but perhaps a bit energetic for early in the morning as it is very steep. Today we went up […]

R and J will both tell you that the cats do not like long car journeys (well let’s face it, they […]

Read MoreThe Deeds of Schrodel
While I was thinking about the cats tonight, I suddenly remembered something amusing I wrote several years ago while I was still a corporate drone who dreaded every day at work. One day I really really didn’t feel like getting up, but Schrodi persuaded me – this was how. You can tell from the description […]

Read MoreBusy, busy, busy
I just had a comment that I had not done a post recently. R and I have been super busy and this last weekend we both had to work. I really hate doing this as come the Monday afterwards I keep feeling it is Friday and the weekend is still to come. Unfortunately, being busy […]

Read MoreGot my last birthday present for this year
I’m not sure whether a lady should be displaying her underwear on a public blog – but R bought me another present which didn’t turn up until very late for my birthday. It was so cool and funny I can’t resist putting a photo of it up here. At least it is not me wearing […]
