Have to finish packing up the garden now, prior to part one of the move tomorrow. Unlikely to be around much in the next couple of weeks, although you never know

Re: Ray's Photos
So, in late May we went to Axminster to suss out carpeting for the new home, and take in a meal at The River Cottage, but no pictures of that`; fortunately, we took a side-trip to the coast at Sidmouth.
But first...

Nice. You should get down there for the Folk Festival Ray... Assuming that you haven't.
Only a day day left of this year's mind you.
Taste is very good. My daughter works in Field's across the road and I have to be waiting with an ice cream for when she finishes work.
I've been talking about writing a book - 25 years of TEFL - for a few years now. I've got it in me.

we just completed the most long-drawn out move in history this very day. Now in Taunton, so day trips to Siddy are going to be rarer, but if I get back it will be Taste rather than the views that will draw me back.
Hoping to restart here in a day or two. Although I shall have to find my desktop, and indeed a desk to put it on, to do it properly.

Re: Ray's Photos
Seems weird to be back in Sandford in June after I left the village for good, and with much bitterness and rancour, not to mention extreme physical mental and emotional stress, just under a week ago. Anyway, here goes, history already, usual suspects, usual places
World in Motion
Bow
Bow-Wow
Double Bow
Shine Lines
Kids today, Don't Know They're Born, etc,
Park in Taunton. We had four swings, a slide and a see-saw, all set in cranium smashing concrete

Apologies if I used this cation before, but it IS Rosa 'Desdemona'
Buddah and Cranesbill
Still don't have my desk top, or desk, set up. Back when I can.

Re: Ray's Photos
Still footling around in early June, part one in Devon, Part Two in Somerset, beginning to explore the northern hinterland of the new house
Fanfare
Soloist
Rose Garden
Hibiscus
I was given this plant in 1988
Window on the Garden
Sigh. It's all going to be destroyed over the next couple of months. Oh well, time to make a new one.

Re: Ray's Photos
Still in Taunton, at the beginning of June, scoping out some new walks
Canalside
Firepool Lock
Flurry
Mallard Flume
Low Tone
In the Country
Actually in the middle of town
Cooling Off
It's not the Creedy, but it'll do
Just one part today. The search for all the various bits of my desktop goes on, and until I find them I can't edit any more photos. I may be forced into the archives again, and that means trouble.

Rolling (with and w/o cow's arse is a more recent favorite of mine. It is one of the images I have in my head when I think of the English countryside. Nice to see it in front of me on a screen instead. Beautiful work as usual and your captions are a delight.

Re: Ray's Photos
Yay, I found the missing IT and we're back on the desktop standard, even if it is in fact on a sideboard, and I'm sitting on an upholstered footstool with a keyboard on my knees. Six months of secretarial college for this?!? Anyway, the first half of June, shuttling between Taunton and Sandford...
Blue and White
The only Deco building I've found in the whole of Taunton so far
Wrecko
Can't get into it now, but just when we we thought were close to final fit, The ground floor wood got condemned for damp. They took up most of the living room floor before they realized it wasn't damp at all
This I'll Miss
Rows of maize beginning to sprout from the rich red earth, something to see on yr way back from the shops
Patrolling
Who You Looking At, Screw?

Re: Ray's Photos
Part Two
Wet
Vivary Park, Taunton
On theTurn
One thing that Taunton has in abundance is alleyways and paths: in the older parts of town, these can be lined with high brick walls from the 19th century and earlier
You Fat Bastard
Wouldn't be so nonchalant if I'd have had The Scrap with me, but he was elsewhere with Herself
Talking of whom
Ready for My Soaking...

A symphony of splosh as himself tries to catch/rescue/kill rocks I have thrown in the water to photograph what they threw up
Back soon I hope

Still in June, still flickering between the two houses in Devon and Somerset...
Garden in Snows
Snows being the name of a street in Sandford
Colourful Confusion

White Cat, Black Elder
Leslie Road Rec, Taunton
Perched
Fat cat, slim fence
