My Sunday photo – I must go down to the sea again
My Mum used to say “I must go down to the sea again, the lonely sea in the sky. I’ve left my knickers and socks there, and I wonder if they’re dry”. This used to make us laugh as children, and now I say this to my kids. The real poem is this and is […]

My Sunday Photo -ugly but adorable
I’ve never actually seen a baby flamingo in real life before. Snapped a shot of these at Birdland in Bourton on the Water this week. A little ugly, but I also think adorable.

My Sunday Photo – Gecko will pose with his food
Spotty the gecko is the perfect model. There is an old saying “never work with children or animals” but he is the most cooperative creature. He’s very sociable and loves to be interacted with and will happily pose for the camera. He’s not like the children or the cats, or in fact, my husband, all […]

My Sunday Photo – wasp up close & personal
Getting up close and personal with a wasp for the sake of a good photo. When I was about 11, at school, I was stung by a wasp. It hurt, a lot. It crawled up my leg by my skirt, I didn’t realize, brushed it and it stung me. My knee was sore and swollen […]
