Another stroll along the river Lea and marshes (Clapton) today. I never get bored of it.

 

[BillRiver]

Ooh and these, from seeds I planted ages ago, in the street outside my flat!

Calves and Croagh Patrick

And strata rock with Mweelrea, the highest mountain in Connacht, with its head in the cloud in background.

You posted another pic recently and I thought it was croagh patrick...big memories of climbing through the mist to the locked church at the top aged about 7 ish.
You live in a truly beautiful part of the world.

Thank you, glad you have good memories of the climb.. you can see the path meandering up behind the calves.

Cut this afternoon; all gone.

I thought I check this morning to see if Tandridge DC has butchered the SSSI behind me as they've been out hacking down the verges. Fortunately, they haven't ventured onto the SSSI yet.

In 2019 they got a lot of flack for cutting it down too early. Last year they left it a lot longer and then got flack from the dog walkers who were concerned about ticks.

I guess we'll have to see if the nature-lovers win out over the dog walkers this year.

Back in London.



My first Tesla. Knowingly anyway.

Such a sheltered life

You obviously don't frequent your local Waitrose carpark very often.

 

[rekil]

I crawled out of my hidey hole and scuttled about for a bit yesterday.

The moon was cool last night

State sanctioned exercise at school. Sun halo over west Wales this afternoon.



(It was just too big to get in the camera so second shot is for perspective).

Britain's most middle class services on the way home - you can buy wooden burger play set, but not a McDonalds

 

[quiet guy]

Gloucester Service are just a copy cat of the original at Tebay Services

 

[brogdale]

Nasty case of stinky pond snot down at Waddon Ponds
Seemed to be far fewer birds than normal; can't blame them.

 

[Boru]

The winter is behind us at last.. fuschia and rhododendron in bloom..

And crabs and cattle sunbathing..

 

[BillRiver]

Love that cow pic.

Stopped off at a favourite spot on the drive down to Bath, Silbury Hill ,in Wiltshire .

 

[BillRiver]

River Lea in Clapton again!

 

[Doodler]

East side of the Wash today. Didn't get too far before coming across a herd of cattle blocking the sea wall and they wouldn't budge. But peaceful among the salt marshes, good just to lie in the sun for a while.

Yep, I always get off the M4 in Hungerford and drive to Bath that way generally I'm not in a rush and it is lovely drive.
