A day exploring Raby Castle Gardens.
Hello everyone! At the weekend, I ventured out to explore Raby Castle Gardens, a treasure of County Durham! It is one of the first places I have visited since lockdown has begun to ease.

Posies from the garden.
Hello again! It has certainly been a while. I decided to take a little time off writing because I wasn't in the right frame of mind and I was struggling a bit. But I am so pleased that I did. I can feel my creative juices coming back and I have a few posts ready [...]

Listening to the Wind and the Rain.
Hello again. Last week I found quite tough. I guess it is with things starting to pick up again as Boris wants us to get out and spend money. I can't help but think that we should be protecting people from COVID still - it still has not gone away. As I write this, [...]
The Wildlife Trusts “30 days wild” challenge: Week Four!
Hello one and all. So we have finally reached the end of another year of the 30 days wild challenge. I swear June vanished in the blink of an eye! Grab a cup of tea, coffee, prosecco - whatever you like, sit back and have a look at what I got up to in the [...]
