Daisy, Daisy ......

 

This afternoon the boys had gone to visit their gran and Degz was playing some loud shooting game on the Playstation so I took myself off out for a walk.

I sat down on the damp grass between these beautiful daisies and collected my thoughts ....

Knobs and Knockers .....

 

A few days ago Gabriel asked if we could go on a long walk on Saturday , when I asked where he wanted to go he said Durham. Now we love Durham so I had no qualms about that whatsoever .

Every time we go I take photo's but this time I wanted to take something different from the usual river, cathedral etc so I decided to focus on doors . I most definitely was not spoilt for choice and these are just a few of the more colourful ones . It's not just the doors and the colours but their accessories too. Just check out the knobs and knockers and those lanterns too , aren't they just awesome.

The last one is our 'Hobbit Door' and I always take a picture of this one every time we go passed. A friend of mine does the same and we alternate in posting it on IG just for fun  ..... it's her turn next .

Which one is your favourite?

Flora and Fauna...

On Sunday I took the boys down the park . Whilst they played football I wandered around the ' sensory garden' looking for bugs. Lots of bees ( I must try and learn to identify them ) , quite a few ladybirds, mostly of the 14 spot black/yellow variety ( some trying hard to increase their numbers cough cough ) and a Soldier beetle.
Not a bad afternoons work if you ask me .....
