An afternoon spent dodging the rain showers.

My first Postcrossing postcard arrived today. Meerlandschaften in Germany. I think it's rather lovely.

Just a few of the latest additions to my bookmark collection. A beautiful selection from Australia. Many thanks Diane.

This week the Winter Jasmin in the garden has burst into flower - such beautiful little flowers.

Lunch out with my son at a lovely little country pub. I just loved the pub sign - The Eels Foot at Eastbridge.

How the weather changes!! After a miserable, grey and very wet day a beautiful sunset.

A cosy day at home uploading all my husband's music on to his iTunes library.

Will the anchors hold?? A grey and blustery day down by the water.

November 17th 2009

A cold but sunny day - a walk through the park on our way to town.

November 16th 2009

Not much happening in the garden at the moment but I did find this lovely mushroom hiding in a quiet corner!!

November 15th 2009

Weatherwise a much calmer day. This photo was taken along the banks of the River Deben at Bawdsey. The strange looking blocks are anti tank blocks dating from WWII. They were used in vulnerable places to prevent invasion by military vehicles and can still be found today all over the UK. As a child I can remember many hours of fun jumping from one to another and playing hide and seek around them!

November 14th 2009

Strong winds and rain with hail at times hit the east coast today. Photo taken looking towards the Martello Tower at East Lane, Suffolk.

A wild day down by the sea. An empty seafront. No people, no cars, not even a seagull!! (Sorry about the quality of the photo - taken through the car window!)

November 12th 2009

A glorious day for a walk in the park.

November 11th 2009

The eleventh day of the eleventh month - Remembrance Day.

A day for remembering all those who have given their lives so that others may live in peace.

November 10th 2009

A trip to the library this afternoon and these are my latest loans. I have always loved Barbara Dickson's music so when I read of her autobiography release I just had to make a reservation on the new title. Jackie Kennedy was an idol of mine back in the 60's - so I will enjoy reading of her again and the Time Out in Sydney book - just being nosey really I wanted to read of some of the lovely places my daughter might be visiting next month!!

The latest additions to my bookmark collection - from Canada, Denmark, the Philippines and the local football team!

I love seeing this beautiful tree in the Arboretum in Ipswich. I wonder how old it is?

Sunshine on the pyracantha berries in our garden.

Canada geese on one of the ponds in Christchurch Park.

November 5th 2009

I've just arrived in the 21st. century! This is my new mobile phone. If I can get my head around it I will be able to use it as a GPS, get worldwide maps and identify the stars in the sky - as well as talking to my family and friends!!

November 4th 2009

A trip into town with my daughter to buy some "must have" items for her big trip to Australia - 17 days to go!! Time for a gingerbread latte from Starbucks before we came home.

November 3rd 2009

It's been a rainy day in Suffolk today so here's one of yesterdays photos. Sunshine and shadows in Christchurch Park.

November 2nd 2009

Gateway to Christchurch Park, Ipswich. All entrances - archways, gateways and doorways hold a fascination for me. I always wonder what I will find inside! This park has some super features - the Mansion, the Wilderness Pond and the Arboretum to name a few. I love the worn down step on this gateway - how many people have passed this way before?

November 1st 2009

Wild, windy and wet down by the coast today!!
