seal search
whilst we were in scotland we went on a walk organised by the national trust to see some seals
we asked whether it was suitable for kids and they said “yes, it’s meant for kids”
so we thought they’d be no problems for our walk-loving youngsters
but the walk itself took us over an exposed hill in the pouring rain
and there wasn’t even a path so we had to stomp through heather
which of course was very hole-y and a bit of a death trap
but onwards we trod
and it was jolly good.
we definately wouldn’t have gone on it if we realised how tricky/wet/hard work it was going to be. but we really enjoyed it so we were glad we didn’t know in advance !
and the views when we got to the other side were stunning (it even stopped raining for a moment or two)
we did see a seal when we got there
liverwort (not worms)
these are carnivorous plants. quite rare i think
it was very wet
here’s our intrepid guide showing us some mushrooms
here are signs of a pine marten
so, i think i’d advise it. but not for those with youngish kids.
after 20 years or so, we’ve now cancelled our national trust membership. we’ll have to see if NZ offers us something similar.
strange animals in the countryside
is an italian chef an animal ?
stags in field
this would be much better if it had the word ‘a’ in it. ie stags in a field.
highland fling
there’s little in life more satisfying than throwing stones in to still water
scented poop bags
who wants bags which smell like poop ? ‘scented poop bags’ does sound like something you’d shout in a particular stressful moment.
have you checked your oil ?
well. have you ? go on. you know you should.
across the bush
here’s a photo i took when we visited new zealand back in easter. it rained every day we were there (except one i think).
hello. 250 and i’m yours
i’d like to know whether adding the word ‘hello’ to the beginning of signs makes people pay more attention. hello ?
inflatable signs
we don’t have enough inflatable signs in the britiain. (picture from last easter – just getting round to posting it!)
thoroughly miserable mannequin
she’s definatley had enough of standing still in window
posh street debris
it’s not all lager louts and beer brutes in england. we have alco-poptarts and cider-sliders too. And occasionally posh winos too, as shown by these london street debris
