7 Days: Day 4 – Lunch

Looking in the fridge to see what to have for my lunch. Apparently we have all the eggs ever laid in the world. However I went for just Gouda and homemade chutney in my sandwich, a few Mini Cheddars and a glass of water. And yes, I do realise that maybe that large yellow wall [...]

7 Days: Day 3 – Sunshine

Five minutes in the garden looking at the blue sky having spent the day doing a transcript, filing a VAT return, updating a tourplan and – mainly – scowling at a papercut.

7 Days: Day 2 – Yellow-ish

My challenge to myself today was to find a splash of natural yellow that wasn’t daffodils or forsythia, both of which can be found in the garden. If only I’d made yellow the theme when the fields around here were full of oilseed rape. I just don’t think these things through! I headed out on [...]

Meatball subs have intrigued me for a while, simply because of their pop culture status in my formative years. In other words, Joey from “Friends” liked them. However, the idea of keeping spherical meatballs and a bunch of [...]

L’après-midi

So eventually we stopped people-watching and got back on our feet to wander the old town and photograph every square inch of it. Well, that’s what I did anyway. Lauren’s been there a lot, what with having once lived in the town and all, so she was focussed (ha, focussed!) more on just the details.
Careering [...]
