Hello Folks!

This is the view from our kitchen window!

It's Chucking It Down!

These photos are especially for my brother and all other Australians who are at this time enduring sweltering conditions.

"Maxi" Christmas Decorations

We have minimal storage in our house - so this is the best I can do!!  Happy Christmas one and all.

Wintry Landscape and Source of the Thames

After a night of freezing fog and very low temperatures I was out in the early morning taking photos of these lovely scenes.  We live near the source of The Thames and river is flowing well after much rainfall this autumn.

Into The Wrecking Bay!

We visit AV8 cafe on Kemble Airfield fairly frequently and keep an eye on the planes that arrive for salvaging.  These steel birds will never flap again!  There have been some weird and wonderful worn out fliers arriving here including two inaptly named "Lucky Air" !!!!

Weather Photos

A few of my blogging friends have commented on the lack of photos in this sporadic blog - especially the ones living in Hong Kong and Australia.   Well - here you are - enjoy these if you can!  We have monsoon conditions today but I braved the weather to go swimming (ironic?). I came across a large flood on the way and would not have had the nerve to drive through but for the car in front that blazed the trail.  Whew - I made it!

It looks as if the farmer's grain store will be flooded yet again.

JUST FOR JANE

Sorry - no frosty pictures yet.  Today had lunch with Maris and Madge at AV8!
