Just Popping in

Just a very quick post to say hello.

We are not living in our new home yet as it needs a fair bit of renovation and decoration and we are a bit of a building site at the moment. We have had broadband connection for about a week now but it's very difficult trying to concentrate on anything with so much noise and dust around so I'm just checking emails and managing to get a quick peek at Blogland from time to time.

The good news is that our present, temporary, accommodation is ours for as long as we need it but the bad news is that our new kitchen, promised for next week, will not be delivered for a further 2 weeks so it looks as though we won't actually be moving in until towards the end of October! However, that will be the final part before our carpets are laid and we are really looking forward to living here.

I am going to atttempt to look in on my blogging friends as I am now beginning to miss you all.

ABC Wednesday - H




I have a few photos to show you from my Holiday last week on the Isle of Wight.

Having our 5 year old grand-daughter with us we spent some time at the beach. This is High tide at Hope Beach.




Here is a row of beach Huts.



and this is the Hut we Hired for the day.



One day we went to a farmhouse for a cream tea which was once voted one of the ten best in the country. It was delicious and whilst we were there I spotted these bales of Hay.



I am now in the throes of moving House so you can imagine how Hectic life is. I will be out of touch for a few days. Once back I will be visiting all my blog world friends again.

ABC Wednesday - the letter G




I have had to schedule this post as I am away on holiday for a week.


Goldfinch



These photographs were taken in the spring.



Isn't he/she beautiful!

Also, today is my youngest grandson's 1st birthday - Happy birthday Matthew. I haven't seen him since he was about a month old as he lives in Australia but apparently he is a real live wire. He has been walking for a couple of months, loves everyone and is full of fun.
