7 Bells ring out from St Peters Church just up the hill and village life begins, outside I can hear the cockerel across the way, rooks shouting from a nest, rooks shout. Birds sing in the smaller trees, apart from that nothing. The house is still, the […]
Welcome, how times have changed, I really hope you are coping and following the rules laid out by the powers that be. As you will see the website is updated with new tiles, please explore. I am trying to keep busy and use my imagination to the […]
I take Sid out for a walk for his daily internet, many wee transfers and a few downloads leave for a happy dog. He likes to run ahead darting around as if he has a scent for something delicious. He often will roll in Sheep shit and […]
