Morning Walk



Last month while staying in our caravan in Wales my wife & I got up early and went for a walk

 The spider was waiting for it's breakfast

 The mist was on the lake

 The moon was still in the sky

 and the sun was just getting up

The sheep just watched us walk past

We walked up the hill and looked down on the mist
I'll what we saw on Friday
Taking Part in Our World Tuesday

The last 15 years



Don't normally post on a Monday but I thought I would share this Video I made about what I did during my last 15 years at work. It was sent around to everyone on my last day when I retired, it's need changed a little from the original that was sent. Hope you enjoy it.

A Little Walk



A few weeks ago my wife & I went for a short walk around where we live so here are a few photos of what we saw




Cows munching on hay in one of the small meadows



Right there is a footpath here through the field





The bridge here is at the end of the path behind where I took the photo

The brook runs past the village further along





Above this is further along across the field near the brook you saw. You look towards Aston Upthorp

Left this is a place we call the Bullshole and a place as children that we all used to play. Over the years it has become well overgrown as no cattle come to drink here now.





























A little further along you cross the brook  and if you walk through the wood you find this plaque







Over the 18 years since it was planted the wood has grown and hides the old railway embankment you could see





When I was a child this was grazing land where cattle used to be the filed was given to the village to mark the Queens Jubilee and is called Jubilee field. Millennium wood is at the end and was planted for future generations.
Hope you enjoyed the walk
