St. Mary The Virgin, Whaddon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

On my way home from my second and final delivery shift of the day, I stopped to admire St Mary The Virgin. I\u2019ve often passed her. And she always turns my head. But this is the first time I stopped to investigate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sadly she was shut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Re-thatching in Melbourn.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Passing through Melbourn en-route home, I saw this picturesque cottage being re-thatched. Took a quick snap. The Old Ways live on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking back towards Flo\u2019.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Back to St. Mary\u2026 I knocked at the door of the large house (former vicarage?) next to the church. But answer came there none.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nice hedgerow arch.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Inside the arch.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The gorgeous hedgerow arch above looks amazing. It\u2019s even more magical to take shelter under it in a downpour. As I was doing when I took these pics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alas, the church was locked.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Moody weather by the road.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When I got home, utterly spent, it was feet up on\u2019t couch time. But I spotted that the sky was unusually pink. So we popped out to have a look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Amazing pink skies.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kind of accentuates the cherry blossom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Gorgeous.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Peachy and smoky.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

These photos are nice. But they fall a long way short of capturing the actual colours, or the powerful impact of the light as we saw and experienced it. Magical!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
A bit more lighting for the drum room.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I finally got around to moving the filing cabinet out of the corner, in my drum room, where I could\u2019nae get at it. And I put a new lampshade on an old lamp, making it look fresh n\u2019 new. The colour once again coordinates well with the feature wall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
And rearranged a bit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s still vast amounts of stuff floating around without a proper home. But I\u2019m chipping away at it all the time. Now\u2026 time for some serious bedtime reading:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
