rural wine holder
answering the age old question of where to put your wine glass when out for a woodland ramble ?
fudge the dog with a big stick
(must admit to slight editing of this to remove a stray foot and colour boost)
getting festive
ice breakers
here’s rupert scaring (or imitating?) a giant ice butterfly
and here he is carrying the sun
and again, seen through the ice window
meanwhile harriet was unabale to contain her extra limb.
rebecca’s well
this is a really interesting thing completely in the middle of nowhere in Crazies Hill (name never fails to amuse). you can read more about it at this excellent website of strange britain
more successful geocaching
esther and kezia went to a pantomoon yesterday so jane and i went on some geocache adventures. Three bigguns this time. And for the first time i collected a ‘travel bug’ to take to another geocache as part of an adventure. you can read more about him here
here are janes with the two other caches we found.
we also went for a lovely meal in the fantastically rustic and calm and lovely bar restaurant “The Old House” in Warren Row near/in Crazies Hill. The owner said he was having trouble getting the phone number in the phone book, so in case you found it via googling for “The Old House”, it’s 01628 825 861 and the postcode is RG10 8QS. You should go as it’s great.
dogs can kill kiwi
by strange coincidence, here’s another no dogs sign from another helen. what are the chances of that ?
ancient dog signs
i went to helen’s leaving do almost exactly two years ago and she’s finally got round to sending me the pictures. i had asked for them because they included the ‘no dogs’ sign.
thanks helen – and i thought i was a bit behind with my photos !
the picture i left behind
over the summer i carried a couple of pictures everywhere i went to hang on handy hooks if i ever came across any. there was one in a holiday cottage we went to so i left it there. as seen here.
another one went on my parent-in-law’s wall and they didn’t spot it for a few weeks. once they found it they took it to jane’s sister’s house and secretly left it there. i’ve not heard anything since. (about it). not sure if they’ve found it or just chucked it in the bin. or perhaps i’ll get it back as a surprise xmas present.
hassock of the week
look at them all ! brilliant.
festive decorations
these things are on a road off oxford street (can’t remember which)
the sky was fantastic as i walked by staring up in to the sky.
this weekend might be christmas tree weekend (if i can convince jane)
