Welcome to family, friends and visitors. Here you will find interesting (hopefully) pictures of my part of the world, news of our household and probably, long ramblings about anything that catches my interest.

A Hot Bank Holiday.

It's been another very hot day but the word is out that this current spell of good weather is coming to an end. 
I've been painting again today. I started on the door frames and was quite shocked when I opened a new tin of 'brilliant white' gloss to find it nearer to cream with maybe a hint of green. I went ahead anyway and the paint has dried to a whiter shade though not as bright white as I hoped. That included the inside of the back gate as I have a plan for it which is still in the design stage.

I did some more wall painting as well but it was too hot and hearing the sounds of families enjoying being on the beach drained my enthusiasm for working. As soon as I came to the end of the paint in my paint kettle I put everything away and headed for the terrace.

A few more photos from yesterday.
I love the way horseshoes have been used for the name of the farm. This was a very organised and neat farm with everything in the large barns stored tidily. 

Somebody expressing their view? To be fair the cave has been 'closed' for years. We reckoned the signs were just for insurance purposes. 
Autumn?
I found this photo of The Big Tribute Festival on-line.
