Friday night


A few things......I am trying very hard to get my act together to crochet some granny squares for Hawthorne. She is sending blankets to Japan for children and babies who have been hit so hard recently. Please read her blog about it here. Her own blog is here.


Also I have discovered a lovely new blog here (new to me) and Bee is having a giveaway here.


I took these photos in the garden the other day. It is in a terrible state. We have been so wrapped up in the house it has been very neglected.

I went for a little walk around our village the other evening.
This is The Old Bridge Inn.



it is just across the river from the church, over the old pack horse bridge.

It is a beautiful old village, of course there are many new buildings on the outskirts but the centre retains the lovely old buildings so full of character.

  6. Such a picturesque village, I love the church tower against the gorgeous blue sky - what fantastic weather too. I'm hoping the weather improves here too soon as our garden has been very much neglected over the last few years and this is the year I want to start getting it sorted...

  12. Lyn, your village looks delightful. Steeped in history and nestling in those wonderful Yorkshire hills! You must pinch yourself every morning knowing that this is home!

  16. There is a name for a spire on top of a tower, and I've forgotten what it is, but it looks just perfect against that brilliant blue sky! What a pretty village - almost as pretty as our Devon villages, har, har! I love the photo of the railings - I love taking photos of fairly ordinary objects from quirky angles, not that railings are ordinary, they are little works of iron-workers' art, but you know what I mean; I should have perhaps said "everyday" objects rather than "ordinary".
