Honey. The Product

And here it is, 21 kilos of lovely honey to keep us going for a while.

 

Honey. It's Back

After a three year honey break, we are back in business. The new queen who arrived in June has delivered the goods. Danielle is holding one of the frames full of honey.

 

Book Group

 In book group we had read The Tie That Binds by Kent Harif. His other book Plain Song had been enjoyed by all. This one, less so. An American gothic special that I could have done without. Some in the group liked it, which is the great thing about a book group; there is never any group think.

Stroll 76 Horton in Ribblesdale to Ribblehead

 

A beautiful days walk in the Yorkshire dales. I took this shot as I started off from Horton station. There is something about the shot that looks unreal to me; which I like.

50 years ago

50 years ago today, cousin Gill, her friend Jude and I set off to Europe in my VW Beetle. Gill and I were 18, Jude much older at 20. Our Granny took this photo at West Farm as we set off. I took no camera "I shall keep the memories in my soul" I said with age-related pretentiousness. 

 

Stroll 75 Horton in Ribblesdale to Settle

Back on the Stroll. Walked alongside the river Ribble to Settle. Great to have the water close at hand to keep the dog cool. A gentle walk to get back in the swing.

 

Friends

Friend Helen invited us over for a meal with friends Paul & Kelly who were visiting from Spain. It was a great evening, with lots to catch up on.
