What is everyone else doing?

Peggy Sue among the flowers.

She has found herself a nice place to sit.

Nancy with my Christmas cactus putting on a good show of flowers.

Bellamy just wandered around the garden yesterday.

Today he wandered to the beach...

~~~~~~~~

Daisy has been helping me bake.

My trusty Edmonds Cookery book.

Delicious Scones.

I think she is hoping to eat the one nearest her right hand!

We also made a large batch of shortbread.

Sunny Sunday

Bellamy enjoyed his early morning beach thoughts...

The sun was shining and the sea was beautiful.

On his solitary wanderings today he took time out to see the memorial stone.  You can read more about it here:  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/106656935/francis-gray-bacon

Kiwi Sindy thought it was high time she changed out of her winter woolies.

She found a nice spring dress to wear that matched her red boots as she still wanted to wear them.

She looks rather contemplative sitting there...

A wee bit lonely I think.

Bellamy's Solitary Travels and Treasures

A favourite thing of Bellamy's is to sit on the beach and listen to the sea.

Bellamy has been having fun collecting 'treasures'.

Funny little bear!

Bellamy's Solitary Travels - April 1st - Day 10!

On this fine day on 1st April Bellamy encounters another 'Path Closed' sign.

He had a little giggle about it being a 'Temporary Path Closure Order' as it is quite clear it has been closed a VERY LONG TIME and there will be no possibility of reopening it, like many of the paths that have been closed, it has completely slipped way, although this one not into the sea like others.

He decides on a direction to go.

This is the way, and off he sets.

Bellamy's Solitary Wanderings - End of March

Bellamy has enjoyed his solitary wanderings these last two days of March 2020.  

Yesterday he found another 'Path Closed' sign... he'd love to explore, but he is a good little bear that so far obeys signs.

This morning he did some contemplating

Some beach combing for treasures...

...and was delighted to find a fossil.

Bellamy's Solitary Weekend Wanderings and Gail Wilson Kit Set - Part Four

Yesterday Bellamy's wanderings only took him as far as into the garden...

He inspected the new growth in the glass house and was pleased to see the seedlings sprouting.

He admired a primrose in the lawn.  Most of them are yellow, but this one is pink.

Today he went for a long early morning walk.

There are various spots along the coastal path that have signs like this...where erosion has washed away the path.  Fortunately most have alternative ways to walk.

I worked on the underwear for my little doll today.

She is pleased to have something to protect her modesty.

I have named her Caroline, after my friend Caro, who sadly died a few years ago.  Her friend kindly sent me this kit amongst others that Caro had bought but never got round to making.

I have an outfit to make her next.

Bellamy's Solitary Wanderings on Friday.

Bellamy's solitary wanderings took him through the woods today...

...where he spotted new growth and marvelled at nature.

He sat on a ledge for a while and admired the view from up high.

He wishes all a very good weekend.

Bellamy's Solitary Wanderings

Bellamy has been enjoying going on his solitary wanderings...

He discovered the doorway to a fairy house, but didn't find any fairies at home.

He loved the shingle each and watching the waves.

A spot of sunbathing was needed to soak up some vitamin D.

Wave watching

and quiet contemplation.

Time to just 'be'. 

Wandering through the woods.

At home with his first treasure he found on the beach this morning.  A bit of blue willow plate by the looks of things.  He wonders about the people who may have used it many many years ago and what they might have eaten.
