The other day I visited a friend who I sometimes get together with to play music. Then as I was leaving, her husband arrived. He turned out to be a retired town planner and he is now writing a book about planning for ways to...

Last week we were away on a family holiday, partly in Norfolk. One of the more remarkable sights we saw was an enormous knitted model of the Royal estate at Sandringham, created by a lady in her 90s. Apparently when her husband...

I found the cutest movie on Tubi last night. It is taken from a juvenile fantasy book series written by Danish-born Lene Kaaberol. It is a six-part series. It is about a 12-year-old girl who is scratched by a black cat. She...

The last post was too long to continue so I have had to make this a separate one. When I started on the list of reasons people may have for not cycling, it was far longer then the ‘reasons they do’ list. And one striking aspect...

Judy Evans @Fleura That's very true. Some parts of our state are actively developing trails for push-bikes, motor-cycles and horses. Some are banned to some disciplines but in other places they try to co-exist.

Judy Evans @Fleura I wonder if, at home, they have to run around with (guinea) pig tails or rollers to keep their coats out of the dirt.

Judy Evans @Fleura Haha - that just sounds so funny. Sometimes, when I'm feeling mischievous and Vin and I meet someone from the village, I'll introduce myself 'Hi, I'm Judy and he's Deaf'. They sometimes don't comprehend either.

Our son is married and lives in Ireland with his wife. Hopefully, he will come out to see us later this year. His wife won’t fly and we’re no longer able to visit them. They don’t have any children. My sister-in-law is in much...

Judy Evans @Fleura Often, the impact beyond the very immediate family isn't really considered but grandparents and others feel such divisions very strongly. Can he get a court order for joint custody? I know that isn't always the best answer.

I just went into the kitchen and saw that the back door was wide open. This is not a simple matter of the wind blowing it open. Because the flannel sheet I drape across the door was neatly pulled aside and hooked up out of the...

DE @Fleura I think they're just people who died in these houses we've lived in. When we house-sat for a friend for several years, I think the ghost there was the guy that had owned the home before... He had backed out of his driveway at that house and been hit by...

The rain has been over for a week now. The flood waters are receding. I’ve seen the drone footage and the photos online, and I don’t believe it. Saturday I took a drive to West Point, Kentucky, which sits at the confluence of...

Four Walls @Fleura — the coastline has homes on stilts everywhere. Even in parts of town on the banks of the river here in Louisville, you see homes on stilts. We have a flood wall that protects most of the city so we don’t experience another 1937 flood (which crested...

Judy Evans @Fleura Yes, that's very true. Vince is well enough but has obviously had his problems this year and it's not always the 'one with the problems' that goes first anyway. It just depends on the roll of the dice. I find it hard to get past the fact that we could...

Not that I’m complaining, as I love them! But these little spring flowers, which people tend to regard as delicate little plants, are in fact tough survivors given half a chance. As you can see we have allowed them to make...
