It's the weekend

It has been a long week!

I just thought I'd catch up with reading a few blogs and share some moments from the past week.

Last Sunday morning Hubby and I went for a walk locally.

It was such a beautiful day.

Blue sky

and sunshine


for a walk in the woods.

Along the path that use to be a railway track many years ago


down the cobbles we went passed the cricket ground at Triangle.


these railings are all that is left to show there was once a church on this road.

And then we were home...home for lunch.
Then of course it was Shrove Tuesday
action shot!

We have had some lovely skies this week too.




Today Hubby and I went to Retro Race at Stoneleigh, just outside Coventry.
I imagined myself looking like this poster

In one of these




Do you recognise the bloke in the photo above?
it was Jamiroquai.....he is into his motor racing in a big way.

This guy was doing a painting....I'd hate to see the state of his studio!
and I took some photos of the sky as we drove home tired.
There was a little package waiting for me when I got home.
I had ordered some postcards from here.

and they were beautifully wrapped (Lucy liked the string)

  5. It's been a very long week here too .... how does that happen? Some weeks drag on and some just vanish ( they're usually called 'holidays!"). I love your 'out and abouts' this week..... and I like your postcards so much, I've just gone over to take a peek ... but they're currently unavailable!
    Hope next week is shorter!

  6. What fantastic photographs and some amazing skies. It was a long week here as well, long and busy with not much time for blogging. well done for catching a snap of JK. The car pictures are fab, even as a non driver I love the look of classic cars. I love the way they have been loved and cherished for many many years. Hope you have a good week.x

  8. Lovely, lovely sunny photos. I should have loved to have seen the retro cars too. Although I don't crave fancy cars there is SOMETHING about retro ones.

    That is one very smart looking little mouse in your previous post - the little blue and white dotty buttons just set that cardi off a treat!

  10. Very relaxing walks in your area, thank you for taking me along. What had happened to the smartcar in the painting area?! The old cars brought back some happy memories.

  11. Lovely photos Lyn and a really interesting walk. Imagine going back in time and seeing the railtrack being used and the church still standing. I like to imagine the folk that were around then too. The retro race looks like a fun day out. x

  13. I've just come back from a walk with very similar scenery, around Penistone and Denby Dale. Sadly the sun wasn't shining much today.
