Various problems with laptops etc and a slight lethargy means that there have been no posts for a while. The last month has had some lovely days and a few highlights are the orchids on Bonsai bank with the Duke of Burgundy butterfly, some nice moths in the trap, catching up with a Blyth's Reed Warbler in the trapping area and a great day out with friends visiting Monet's Garden in Giverny, France.
A day at Bletchley Park, courtesy of my late Uncle's donation, was very interesting and brought home the atmosphere and conditions of war time and how much we owe those people who worked so hard to keep us safe and shorten the war. Huts 3 and 4 have been restored to what they would have looked like during the war. Very nostalgic seeing things like Player's Navy Cut cigarettes and some of the clothes.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteWe both love your blog, and have read with interest of your adventures in and around the country side. Great photos. I wonder if you would be kind enough to help us find the frog orchid in Eastbourne. Jim and I spent many hours searching for it to no avail and hate to give up on it. Will understand if you feel unable to help.
best wishes
Dawn
