That Special Place – The Gallery

There are some places that are almost too special to share.  I always feel a little nervous when I write about this one as it’s so small and perfect and unspoilt, and I love it.  But for you Tara, and for the fabulousness that is the Gallery,  I give you Wembury, Plymouth. It’s where that beach [...]

The Joy of Sex – Gallery Week 7

We’re in the reptile house at Drayton Manor Park.  The kids are entranced by all the slithery, spiky, scaly things.  Their faces are pictures.  Bright eyes, broad toothy grins or wide gasping mouths caught mid ‘Oooh’. But the adults?  The adults are entranced by something else.. Sighhhhh, amorous amphibians – truly joyous.  I also filmed them for [...]

This week Tara has asked for photographs from outside your front door.  The thing is, I live on a fairly simple, fairly narrow little street.  We love it here.  We love our little house.  But, well, if I took a picture of our view it would be a bit weird.  In fact, it’s quite possible [...]

A Number Two for Tara

Lovely Tara’s Virtual Art Gallery subject today (Wednesday) is numbers.  I don’t normally like going for the obvious and had this plan to go out and spend some time looking for a tree shaped like a 9, or a carrot doing an impression of a number 372, but alas my camera is lacking a charger [...]

Picture Perfect

So a little while ago, an age, an eon, part time Hamster Recycler and Escape Artiste Tarzipan of the Sticky Digits tagged me for a meme, swiftly followed by Pingu Stunt Double,  Rosie Scribble Esq. It’s a lovely one, and as most of the work has been done by my children it’s been quite an easy [...]

Just a quickie post tonight everybody. Tomorrow, no wait, today I am off to sunny Spain with some fabulous other blogging Mums. I’ll tell you more when I get there but needless to say we’ll be working hard.  (Cough). I’m really excited as I’ve never been on an ‘all girls’ trip before, wehey, but  I’m also a little  bit [...]

Super Savvy Me, the Giant Pigeon and a Man dressed as a Haddock

I haven’t been to London much. When I was a kid I had plans to head off to the big city and make my way as a writer.  I’d live in this leaky and yet some how cosy flat, with fifties decoration and an eccentric but loveable old couple next door who’s cat would sometimes poop [...]
