Saturday in the Hide

February 7th, 2010

Another hour spent in the hide on Saturday morning. Mae went shopping and I had rugby to look forward to all afternoon so out I went and spent another pleasant hour watching the activity in our garden.

The garden was busy until the cat took an interest. I don’t know whether he saw me but he spent awhile looking towards the hide before ambling off. The garden became quiet then and that was it.

The afternoon was spent watching the 6 Nations Rugby matches. Well done England!!!

During the week I am off to a nature reserve with some-one who knows his birds so I hope to come back with some more (better?) images.

Cheerful Drawings

February 2nd, 2010

I received a really nice surprise in the post today.
As you know from the previous post, last week was a ‘different’ week for me when a chest complaint laid me low.
Of course, Janet and Sharon were told and they told the boys who decided to do some drawings to cheer me up.

So it was lovely to open the mail and find these ‘get well’ cards:
This drawing from Joseph.

Joseph\'s drawing of Lewis Hamilton in an F1 racing car

This drawing from Henry:

Joseph’s will join the Grandchildren’s Art Exhibition on the kitchen door.
(A question for Joseph – Can you spot the difference?)
Henry requested that I use his as a luggage lable but I think I will attach it to the holdall in which I carry my musical instruments etc. so, like Joseph’s, I will see it everyday.

Getting these through the post really did cheer me up.
Thanks Boys.
