On a day of bright sunshine, bluster and showers so shocking to make you chuckle, it was a minor challenge to get any decent photos. This makes me ponder as to what is the most important, Six on Saturday-wise, the shots or the words? The most important to me or to you? Words are moreContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Competition”

Six on Saturday – Whinge Free
No whinging this week, I promise. I’m too scared of Jude to try that lark again. Of course, she is quite right and I have given myself a serious talking to. And for once I actually listened. So, for one day only, which is all I can promise, all will be happy, upbeat and optimistic.Continue reading “Six on Saturday – Whinge Free”
Six on Saturday – Pinch Punch
Happy 1st of March to you all. For the optimists, debatably deluded on this frosty morning, this means spring has officially begun. For the pragmatists, we are still officially in winter until the 20th of this month. Naturally, I am in the former category, ready to be disheartened when the snow starts and all myContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Pinch Punch”
Six on Saturday – Cliché
Whatever you may have heard, I am not a fair weather SoSer. I have legitimate reasons for being absent for the past few weeks. They are: holiday, distraction, apathy. I’m here today with a rather unoriginal post, full of late winter clichés and repetition. It is hard this time of year, tricky to get outContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Cliché”
Six on Saturday – Reluctant
It is not getting any easier, this Six on Saturday lark. I was rather reluctant to venture out to take photos; a cold, soggy and dark garden is not the most enticing destination. However, I told myself that if there was a time when I should make the effort it was now and, not quiteContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Reluctant”
Six on Saturday – Chilly
A deep breath everyone, we’ve done it. Congratulations Gang, we have successfully managed to complete 2024 and have moved on to 2025, in spite and despite the festivities. Well I hope we all did. It would be fair to say that this current spell of chilly, and perhaps snowy, weather is my fault. Last weekContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Chilly”
Six on Saturday – Inbetweeny
Here we are in Inbetweeny Time, a time which is simultaneously “after” and “before”. It is a time of national confusion. No one is quite sure what day it is, who is working and who is not, with the added trauma of working out when the recycling should go out, as if we miss itContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Inbetweeny”
Six on Saturday – Desperate
I really wanted to come out to play today. Last Saturday was my first contribution for a while and I wanted to keep the momentum going. Inertia may have been vanquished but it is a formidable opponent. This weeks’ problem was the photographs. All day the rain fell. All day my camera was at myContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Desperate”
Six on Saturday – Slacker
Lately I’ve been remiss in the Six on Saturday department, possibly in other areas too. Both body and spirit have been weak. Today, before the arrival of the man to check the roof, I nipped out to take a few gloomy photos, as a way of passing a few minutes productively. It transpires that theContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Slacker”
Six on Saturday – November Already?!
Seriously, November already? I’m not sure I’m prepared. I don’t mean for frosts and other inclements, I mean ready for, well, how can I put it, gloom. Each sunny day is grasped in a needy way, a life raft in a sea of drear. The garden, of course, couldn’t give a monkey’s about the weather,Continue reading “Six on Saturday – November Already?!”
