Just watching the sun slide down the sky. A 3 hour walk this morning and leisurely lunch. Talked to the boy as he was driving home from Nottingham. Feeling sad because he doesn’t think we should come back at Christmas. 😒💕
You wouldn’t have wanted a 30 minute walk here today, and colder tomorrow but hopefully dry so I can get those last bulbs planted. Then I can truly hibernate. No lunches out for us 😞 and if you do come over you’ll have to quarantine for 14 days so is there any point?
Nice to have that view. Despite living in the countryside, I can only see the houses opposite. I hope nobody ever gets permission to build behind your house.
Best wishes, Pete.
Great news, Jude. The NT are not known to sell off farmland they own, unlike many farmers here in Norfolk, who seem to be busting a gut to sell their land for new housing projects.
Wow! Ever since early childhood I have marveled at the contrast between dark grey and bright green in the landscape. I didn’t know what to call it. I remember standing at my grandmama’s back door, looking out at pine needles lit up with sunshine against the grey of an incoming storm. I said, something like “ook! bootiful!” Mama shook her head. “Baaad.” Your photo brought that memory back to me. It’s NOT bad, but beautiful!
It really should have a name shouldn’t it! The black sky and the green fields lit up by the sun breaking through. Glad it’s brought back a good memory. The bad is of course the rain that’s heading towards you ( or in this case me!)
We live about 10 miles from Land’s End as the crow flies so the storms usually approach from the south west, when the sky turns this black you know you are in for a downpour!
Cornwall in Colours 
So gorgeously green…….
Yup! That would be on account of the endlessly falling rain… 😅
Grey again, huh, but that shaft of sunlight narrowly misses Alice 🙂 🙂
A hint of blue on the horizon after a night of rain which kept me awake.

Not a bad view … at all.
I like it more when the sun is beating down.
You’re cosy enough inside …
True. But soggy for gardening… 😕

It’s all farmland and behind us much is owned by the NT. I can’t see any building happening here, certainly not in my lifetime.

Wow – that is great photo. We had some grey clouds like that today too

Ah, the light on the land…..
Yes, it can be marvellous at times.
yay a hint of sunshine 😀
