Still waiting

Well my husband was supposed to return home from Africa yesterday but it has been delayed till Saturday. After having two people threaten him for money he has decided not to risk walking down certain streets to restaurants after dark. This means I have to wait even longer to get my camera back. I went out on Saturday to buy a compact, thinking I knew which one to buy but went to another shop first to see what they had and ended up confused again so came home with nothing, in order to do more research. Hence I'll have to wait to show some of the things I have bought but now I can add some lovely books I am waiting on. In the meantime I have been painting my kitchen and some shelves to put up, reading more of your lovely blogs, something I think I'll have to stop doing for a while because it takes up too much time, there are sooo many, time I should be using to decorate my house and make the things I got my material for, the reason I started this blog in the first place, but what can I say, I spend too much time thinking and dreaming instead of doing!

I have been looking and dreaming about one day living in something like this:

Oh and can I say THANKYOU to my first follower over the Atlantic in 'cosylittlehouse'. I hope I soon have some more visitors. In the meantime I shall carry on enjoying reading your blogs.

Garden visitors

 I am not too great with a camera, I can't really be bothered with all the applications to try and make them better. My husband is passionate about photography and has recently got back into it after a number of years away. Because of this most photos on the blog will be ones that I have taken from various cameras and so, not that great. There may, however be the odd good one, of which case will have no doubt been taken by my husband.  Here are a few of my photos of visitors to my garden.










If you look closely you can see a fox running away from the tenfoot. Probably the same fox that killed 5 of my guinea pigs over a year time period. Sadly they have all now died, guinea pigs that is, and been replaced by two lovely rabbits, thunder and lightning.

A young wood pigeon decided to shelter from the rain in my bottle bin.
Two of my last remaining guineas.


Lightning

Thunder


And here are some of the things that grow
