Breaking new ground

Dreamdust has lain fallow for some time now, but a little while ago I signed the lease for an allotment in the village and am now keeping track of my progress at www.plot5b.co.uk
Feel free to follow along there …

7 Days: Day 7 - The last one

And that’s it. A little photo illusion trickery between me and John to confuse the mind and a look back at some of my shots from the past 7 years.

Today was a lovely Christmas II with John, Sam and the girls (“Spin around in your beautiful dress, Auntie Doow!”). Wonderfully exhausting and I’m about ready for a lie-in tomorrow. The kind my body actually wanted this morning, when I woke up and found that I’d sunk about 6″ into my mattress and my limbs weighed a tonne each.

Thank you for making 7 Days such a fun place to be. I think a lot of us are already following each other in other social media, but there’s a (private) thread on the group discussion board for anyone wanting to share Instagram, Facebook, Twitter accounts etc in order to keep in touch beyond 7 Days.

7 Days: Day 6 – No idea

7 Days: Day 6 - No idea

I’m trying to think what I’ve done today … I know I had a turkey sandwich. There was more jigsaw work – and we’ve completed it now, hurrah! I pretty much caught up on your festive photos … what else? I have no idea. There were a few episodes of Cheers in there too. All in all one of those gentle, not much happening days, I guess. Very nice.

7 Days: Day 5 – Season’s Greetings

25 December 2013

7 days: Day 5 - Season's Greetings!

Happy Christmas / 25th December, everybody! It was just me, Mum and Dad at home for Christmas today and after lazing around, having our presents and our meal, we opened up this fantastic jigsaw we’d received from my sister-in-law’s family. We’ve spent about 6 straight hours on it tonight and have made good progress, but are nowhere near done. 1000 pieces, with birds, insects and accompanying shrubbery, it’s not surprising it’s taking a team of 3 this long! I was pondering the placement of the festive robin for quite some time, but he is now attached, standing on a flower pot in the snow. The lapwings and the woodpecker are going to need some attention tomorrow; they’re still floating about in several pieces.
