Note to self: next time you're out with the camera, remember to clean the lens before taking 150+ pics.
😥
Expect a report on yesterday's outing sometime after I've worn out Photoshop's clone tool. Don't hold your breath - I may be some time.

Kipper tie?
You never know, this might be just the stuff to encourage me to get out more:
Now, where can I lay my hands on a sledge and some Burberry gabardine?
Common sense prevails
This is brilliant news: Victory! Government to scrap plans to sell our forests.
Thanks to all of you that supported the protests and the petitions.
Well done!
A bimble around Braddie Park
Chris took yesterday off work so we went out for a Valentine's Day walk at Bradgate Park. Despite the cool breeze and the cloudy weather it was good to get a few hours out together without the kids.

Remember why they stand
"Through God's good grace, through strength of English Oak
We have preserved our faith, our throne, our land.
Now with our freedom saved from tyrant's yoke
We plant these trees. Remember why they stand."
Plaque at Bradgate Park
Some of these trees have stood since 1946, accessible to the public and surviving many storms and governments.
It's just plain wrong for the current government to even consider selling off land bearing treasures like these.
The petition to stop the immoral sale needs more support - please encourage everyone you know to sign up to the cause.

Half A Million!
That's a fair wedge of folk that want the Government to leave our forests alone.
