I've lived close to a Standing Stone for years but never knew it until the hedges got cut back so much I could see it from the road while out walking. Last evening, I crossed the field to have a closer look. I feel in awe of these ancient monuments. #standingstone #ireland

I requested my Valentine's Day flowers come in Lego form this year.

This has to be one of the most beautifully written, incredibly descriptive, and evocative books I have ever read. You can feel the rain, smell the turf, and hear the bicycles trundle down country roads.

It's a quiet, slow-paced story and very absorbing.

My cat is demanding to be left out but I can't allow him as the house rattles from #stormeowyn here in north County Cork #speirgorm

I really enjoyed this. I love a good whodunnit, and this combines it with legal drama, so it ticked a lot of boxes for me.

Wonderlights at Fota House were beautiful. I did almost trip over a toddler in a buggy who stuck their leg out and was also a bit hungover, but it was worth the effort.

My amaryllis decided to burst into flower without warning, taking me by surprise as I thought it was still dormant.

Remembering Summer hedgerows.
A bumblebee has its head buried in a purple flower in search of food, while a shiny green shield bug sits on a nettle leaf nearby.

Maurice the pheasant has returned to the bird feeder. Such a beauty, hate to think of the fact that it's prime pheasant hunting season right now 😬

What I read in November. One DNF - a rarity for me but life is too short and there are too many other books. Favourite was The Graces.

Took my Mam to the book fair at Marina Market in Cork. Six books purchased and some sausage and mash had her looking pretty happy.
