Six on Saturday – For Joy
Today is damp and dismal yet again. According to the Met Office, and they are quite trustworthy, Devon was the wettest county in the UK in March, being the recipients of a generous average of 192.5mm of precipitation. Yep, a lot, unless you are reading this in the Amazon or monsoon country when I expectContinue reading “Six on Saturday – For Joy”
Busy
Being “busy” seems to be the curse of our age. “I’m soooooooo busy” we all cry, too busy for this, too busy for that, checking schedules, consulting diaries, sighing.

Then I had a little word in myContinue reading “Six on Saturday – An Easter Parade”

B stands for “better”, that is “better shopping”. This was our first visit of the year to Marwood HillContinue reading “Trolley Dash”
Prickly
As far as prickly days go, and there is no doubt that is exactly what today was, it was a good one. At Bill and Benjamina’s, a month or so ago, men with machines carved through brambles at irregular heights before dashing off in their white van to some other garden needy of petrol andContinue reading “Prickly”

Today it was nearly summer.

Take a look at our leader The Propmeister‘s blog and all will be revealed about what Six onContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Time Travel”
