Real radio

If you only listen to one programme on the radio this year, please make it this one.

Dawn Chorus, as recorded by Chris Watson, in BBC Radio 4's programme Soundstage.  It's fifteen minutes of pure perfection.  It has all my favourite sounds - birdsong, waves, music. The programme just finished and it will be on iPlayer, and also available as a podcast.  Don't miss it, any which way!

    Just listened it and it was lovely, I always wondered what a nightingale sounded like. x

    When I was young my mother and I used to drive to listen to nightingales on warm June evenings - pure magic! I haven't heard a nightingale in real life for about 25 or more years, but that programme brought back wonderful memories! It was a lovely programme wasn't it! A real treasure. I've got it saved on a podcast. Hope the sun continues to shine on Cornwall. It's still lovely here in East Lothian! A x

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.
