This is a special Six on Saturday. Today was to have been the wedding day of my nephew Adam and his fiancée Jess. Instead of white gown and morning suit they will be donning PPE’s, both at present working on Coronavirus isolation wards in The University Hospital of Wales. I am immensely proud of themContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Hearts and Flowers”

Six on Saturday – Befuddled
Not only am I confused about what day it is, I am a little befuddled as to which week of the year it is. Hence, I spent a fair amount of time on a blog which is appropriate to next week. No matter, it is money in the bank I suppose. We are getting paidContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Befuddled”
Six on Saturday – Celebration
On the face of it there hasn’t been much to celebrate recently. For quite a while now. Most of the reasons, and there have been a fair few, have been, and are continuing to be, well documented. Too many commas? Perhaps. In our little corner, just to add some spice to the mix, we haveContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Celebration”
Six on Saturday – Between Storms
Are we still hanging on? Hope so. Welcome to another Six on Saturday. If you need to know more or you would like to see what the others are up to, and quite frankly you would be daft not to, pop over to The Maestro Prop’s site and all will be revealed. A tricky week,Continue reading “Six on Saturday – Between Storms”
Six on Saturday – The Right Direction
February has arrived; the month of love, the last hurrah of winter, a time of increasing optimism. In theory anyway. The shortest of month of the year can sometimes seem the longest, plodding through to March which itself can be slow to reveal spring. However, there are definite advances in the garden, subtle often, butContinue reading “Six on Saturday – The Right Direction”
Six on Saturday – Return of the Sun
I am happy to report that this Six on Saturday is written with the sun in my heart and, more importantly, in my garden. Yesterday, when I took these photographs, it was doing the usual, no need to dwell on that nonsense, that is the past. Let us raise a cup of tea to theContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Return of the Sun”
A Solstice Six on Saturday
In the northern hemisphere, tomorrow is the winter solstice. It is a time of optimism, an opportunity shout “up yours” to winter and, whilst shaking an angry fist, “your reign is nearly over Baby”. The currently submissive Day will begin to nibble at the dominant Night, slowly at first, getting hungrier as the weeks pass. Continue reading “A Solstice Six on Saturday”
Six on Saturday – Guest Blog with Fat Ol
Before we begin let us get one thing straight, my name is not Fat Ol. I am Perfectly Formed Ol. Due to Gill being “too busy doing nonspecific important things” I have reluctantly agreed to stand in. Between you and me, don’t tell a soul, she said (and this is a direct quote) “I can’tContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Guest Blog with Fat Ol”
Six on Saturday – In Haste
Sorry folks, I am in a terrible rush today, so this is going to be heavy on the photos, light on the words. Almost indetectable on the words. Let us go, but don’t forget to pop over to The Prop’s site to find out what it’s all about Alfie. First a cyclamen, a bit ragedContinue reading “Six on Saturday – In Haste”
Six on Saturday – November Cheer
I am determined to remain upbeat for this week’s Six on Saturday. Apparently, according to a memo I received this week from our mentor The Prop, it is important that we keep our happy faces on, given all that is going on at the moment. And, as we all know, what The Prop wants, TheContinue reading “Six on Saturday – November Cheer”
