Sunny days

I have been enjoying the last couple of days, the sunshine has been lovely and I managed to get out in it for walks, one to the local shops to get a few bits and one with my mum to Bachelor Hill which is near my home. You get such a nice view and on a clear day, like Sunday you can see all the way to the hills and you can see the white horse. Took my camera and took a few photos too.

Talking of photographs, a couple of my pictures have been on display at the City Screen cinema as part of the Love Arts festival. They are on display until Friday 30 May on the first floor.

In other news I've lost four pounds so far in my quest to get down to more reasonable weight, so go me!

Lavender's blue, dilly, dilly, lavender's green

Today I went to Yorkshire Lavender with my mother and Lea it is lovely around there and it was nice to be out in the countryside again. I came back with some Lavender and Bergamot bath fizzers, pencil, pencil sharper and an eraser. There was so many Lavender things! Also came back with a Lavender plant for my sister. We want to go back in summer when more of the plants are in flower but I got some lovely shots of the countryside and some of the plants that were in flower and the deer too.

The tea shop had lovely (and generous) portions but the service was a little slow, we watched them lose about three or four tables because they didn't get served for quite a while. But all in all a good day and lovely weather too.
