I'm so glad you popped in, I'll put the kettle on and you grab yourself a chair - a good a time as any to stop for a brew. Enjoy...

22♥ and still counting down

Last summer (eek that seems eons ago) we spent a glorious warm week in Northumberland. Our holiday spilt lazily into southern Scotland as we trundled around from stream to stream, from coastline and wooded valley to keep cool. We stopped at a small barely moving ford. The stream slipped languidly over the road and dropped into a rocky pool. Flies hummed in their thousands above the water but thankfully showed no interest in us.


Himself pulled up and parked the car in shade and we delicately dipped our feet into the surprisingly cold and refreshing water. The boys and the dog ventured through and back the ford, relishing the relief on hot feet. Himself and I sat back and watched, and all the while, we were being observed........
by the provider, and the rest of his herd, of number 22





The kittens are fast asleep on the shelf next to me and I can hear tiny whispy snores and little cat dreams.

Later we will be putting up the decorations - so am expecting kitten and boy chaos! The kitchen is calling as it gently emits festively spicy smells, our sun cake is waiting to go into the oven and I better go and finish it.


Enjoy what's left of today.

  1. Not sure I can recall it being hot enough to want to stick my feet into a running stream... perhaps next June but not now! What a pity blogs cannot come with the spicy smells of your kitchen.

  4. Ah, I can see Carolina's Christmas tree! How cute is that? I though it was some sort of private code to begin with but then my brain cell work up.
