I love scrolling through archives, pulling out memories along with the photos. What I remember of 14th February 2017 is how warm the morning and how cold the afternoon. But we won’t think about that. Enjoy
Snowdrops and catkins. But of course, we’re edging into spring
Love how sheep will stop grazing, look up and watch you walk by
Inside an old lady…
More signs of new life
This beautiful Cobb wasn’t too eager to have its photo taken. But with a little help from the owner we persisted. The Gypsy Cobb was my grandpa’s favourite breed; he was a dealer, trainer and breeder
Venta Icenorum – with the church of St Edmunds, martyred king of East Anglia, one time patron saint of England until St George was imported
Info boards at Venta Icenorum
And we finish with thorn trees, one young, one old
Hope you enjoyed












I’d like to see a close up of that tower. And I love the sheep! The pony is cute too.

What a beautiful selection, Crispina. So funny to read “edging into spring” when talking about mid-February!

I think it was a freak year. Not much sign of that happening this year, although I have found snowdrops

I came home to a foot of snow that fell on Thursday and another that has been falling since I got home (at 2 am)!

It was an early spring that year. The following year we had the snow-laden icy winds of the Beast From The East (straight from Siberia!)

I love that horse – love the way they often have really long manes and hair on their legs like flared trousers!

They do have a very young, fun look to them. My grandpa swore they were the very best natured horses
