a plague of frogs in knightsbridge


"challenge", the antique tug boat, being taken back to her berth at portslade




the east grinstead turnpike trust



















made in the eighteenth century, there are a few of these mile markers left on the A22 but it has been difficult to park the truck safely on such a busy main road

caerphilly castle


mavis used to play here eighty years ago, although it was a bit more overgrown then

that's her investigating the ruin ... she was looking for the kitchen door


here she is at last !!!



















at ninety-something, mavis is avidly re-creating the scenery of her childhood around the lanes of blackwood and pontllanfraith

mavis still paints at ninety-something but you can't see the picture

oh, what a saga .... i've got back into the editor page after re-installing windows explorer .... but now blogger doesn't upload my pictures
