In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Careful.”
It’s I who am being careful; speaking softly and urgently; encouraging MasterB back indoors.
I don’t want to sound smug, but I have had more than one good day which would suit the current photo challenge “Today Was a Good Day.” And the photos to prove it.

In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “On the Way.”
On the way home yesterday from Wiltshire I was on a coach looking out of the window. On a whim, I took my little Olympus and snapped the countryside as we sped along the road. These are some of the results.

The walls around our shared garden are Victorian, and were the walls of the steamworks and laundry that used to be on the site.

There have been a couple of photo challenges recently I thought I might participate in, but suddenly it has been Friday again and a new challenge is posted.
The current challenge, New, is not one I thought I’d be contributing to. But behind the fading elegance of a rather splendid bunch of Christmas flowers, my Christmas cactus has come into timely bloom.
Pretty against the copper planter, it is a bright spot on a dull weekend. Continue reading
