Walking in the woods

Just a few pictures from our walks in the woods round Congleton where Paul grew up.

Biddulph Grange Gardens, Congleton

These are from our trip up North to Congleton.

Jakey missed me...

I've been walking in the woods...

More photos coming soon...

London graffiti art

I'm pretty sure the top one is one of Banksy's. These were found near Chalk Farm.

a recipe for comfort eating (for one deep breath)

comfort eating

breathe in scent of steaming redskins
mash with butter, cream and salt
eat straight from the pot

Claudia sneaks up on Jakey

This is little Claudia, the kitten we are looking after for a friend, sneaking up on Jakey. She can't seem to decide whether she likes him or not, but she's stopped hissing at him now, so maybe they will actually play together before the week is out. Lottie unfortunately, is very unhappy about our little visitor and is staying well away.

daybreak

mud white dawn
another summer day
replaced by glaswegian fall
I burrow back into sleep
dreams of warmth buried deep

compare and contrast for one deep breath

metal beaked cranes
heads lifted to the sky
forgotten bird cries
