White Horses
Posted on March 5, 2021
Several of our neighbours own (and deal in) horses, so there are quite a few to be seen in the surrounding fieldsy fields, including these two who usually keep each other company.
Wisteria

For Cee’s midweek challenge this week, here’s a close look at some wisteria.

Much bigger than a breadbin
Posted on February 27, 2021
Cee’s Black & White Challenge this week is ‘bigger than a bread box’ – or, indeed, ‘breadbin’.
You could hardly claim that that’s a particular limiting factor in making a choice of what to post.

Cee wants something with at least two ‘A’s for her CMMC this week.

Even with all the latest technology and machinery available to them, farmers’ work is hard. It’s difficult to imagine how tough it must have been when everything had to be done by hand with simple toools like these.
Stacked
Posted on February 16, 2021
Out here, wood-fired heating is still the norm, so there’s a lot of bois de chauffage to be seen in the nearby fields. This particular stack of logs, just down the road from us, would be enough to keep a home fire burning for years.
