Never thought, when we started gardening during the pandemic, that I'd have the patience to make things grow, the patience to learn some wine making techniques, and then the patience to wait! (OK drank some & gave half away last year)
A hobby worth the time and effort!

Never knew Agatha Christie got around here so much, mind you, never read a single word she wrote! Maybe if there was only three books the climb may have been easier! Orchid gardens were beautiful and an unexpected find.

Just some pics of fruit from my garden. Love this time of year, trees just keep giving, they dont demand much in return. Why can't we be more like trees?

Give holidaymakers a little blank canvas and a white tile, add a few glasses of wine, and a paint palette, hours of silence in the sun! Bliss.

I sit in my kitchen
Whilst you're still in bed.
My day ending
Hours before yours begins.
A glass of wine
To toast dawn's splendour.
Simple joys of the night shift
Some will never see.
