Thursday Doors -Canal Boat

I’ve posted about canal boat doors before – I like their miniature size and the variety of different ways that people choose to personalise their boats. Living near to the Grand Union Canal, I often walk along it, and you get to know the boats that regularly moor in your area. When I wrote myContinue reading “Thursday Doors -Canal Boat”

Wednesday Wander – Headland House, Cornwall

Yesterday would have been the 100th birthday of author Roald Dahl so, in celebration, my Wednesday Wander this week has a Roald Dahl connection. This is Headland Hotel in Newquay, Cornwall, and it was the location where Roald Dahl’s The Witches was filmed, starring Angelica Houston as the Head Witch. With magnificent sea views overlookingContinue reading “Wednesday Wander – Headland House, Cornwall”

Thursday Doors – Overgrown

A while ago, I posted about a door that seemed to have been abandoned – the steps green with moss, ferns and branches obstructing the path. This week, I have another door which no longer seems to be in use. It’s in a rather old building – the adjacent barn is 15th century and IContinue reading “Thursday Doors – Overgrown”

Wednesday Wander – Portmeirion, Wales

I’ve chosen to wander to the village of Portmeirion, North Wales, this week. There are a couple of reasons for doing so; one, it’s a pretty interesting place and, two, it’s fifty years ago this week since filming started on cult television series The Prisoner, which used the village as its backdrop. The Prisoner starredContinue reading “Wednesday Wander – Portmeirion, Wales”

Of Blackberries and Back To School

The gorgeous girl started back at school today. I know, it’s odd to start back on a Friday, but that’s how the school has chosen to schedule it this year (I think we get an extra day off somewhere else). And it’s kind of nice, in a way. Only one day at school means that,Continue reading “Of Blackberries and Back To School”
