Forward March*

I took very few pictures of my visit to Two Temple Place

- my phone makes a loud shuttery kerlik noise

which cannot be turned off because it's Japanese

and it's The Law.

However, I had to have a record of these wonderful windows.

I would ask for them as my luxury

in case I was cast away on a barren island.

I was mightily impressed by the attention to detail in the Ladies.
Half a pipe was grained to match the panelling.
For a more erudite and complete report of the exhibition
Cotton to Gold, currently on show, 
you can do no better than to visit Katherine here.

*The clocks go forward tonight. 
This is the only way I can remember it.
Baby B. who is currently staying with us
will wake around 6 am tomorrow.
Hurrah!

Could do better

This is a mossy wall, blossoming.

I wish I had more to offer 

but the rest of the pictures from the weekend

were 28 shots of the inside of my coat pocket,

this little critter,

and sand.

Instaclipse

Portable!
No special glasses needed!

Cloud cover at 8 oktas where you are?

Satisfaction guaranteed!

As quiet as

Looking for a quiet spot,

in a noisy town centre

to wheel grand-daughter 

because she needed a nap,

I chanced upon

this place 

of peaceful repose.

Pond safety

This is our pond.

I wish it looked like this.

But it looks like this:

exposed black liner,

and duck weed.

However Tall Cat drew my attention to

something of interest afoot

in the pond this morning.

The frogs are back,

so once again we have left it too late to repair the leaks,

or fill it in altogether.

With a visiting grand-daughter,

who will be crawling before we know it,

filling it in is the safest option.

We'll concentrate our efforts on the bird feeders instead.

Blues and greens

 Soaking up the blues and greens.

I was told that 

Blue and green should never be seen 

except upon an Irish Queen.

But now it seems my informant was wrong,

it was red and green for that rule.

Without another colour in between,

or except in the washing machine,

is what I should have been abiding by

for blue and green.

Oh and never wear brown in town.

Or brown and blue will never do.

We love amusing ourselves with rules that rhyme.

I notice I am wearing green and blue striped socks

If you see the sky is blue,

Time to break a rule or two.

Snowdrops and hazel

Nothing to say just now.

Too much internal chatter going on.

Twinkle twinkle

Starfish.

Little star at six months.
