Poor old Jesamine’s lost her spark. You’d think it would gradually fade away, perhaps with a gentle putter, like a candle’s wick burning to the end. Or she’d be slow to start, as if she needed to warm up her aching bones. It all sounds quite romantic. With just a little rest and the rightContinue reading “Poor old girl’s lost her spark”

On the road again….but just for foraging Travel restrictions are still in place and like most people, my itchy feet are itching like crazy – the end of lockdown is so close I can almost taste it. I’d hoped to do some traveling around the UK this summer but it’s looking unlikely as I thinkContinue reading
Jesamine, Molly, and me

Jesamine, Molly, and me
Manningtree, Essex A couple of weeks ago I ventured out. It was just Jesamine, Molly and me. I’d done a bit of research (as I’m a perennial planner) and found a car park on the banks of the river Stour in Dedham – Constable country. I haven’t been to Dedham for a long, long timeContinue reading “Jesamine, Molly, and me”
