I apologise for not answering comments on my last post but feel now, that it is far too late. There were no questions to be answered, so to all of you now I can only say Happy 2021 and let us hope that the vaccines will soon work, and the rising numbers of COVID cases will soon drop. The numbers now are beginning to have names and I have lost one friend in South Africa to date.
Much has been going on and time never seems to be on my side. I will though try to get a few blogs done over the next few weeks. These photos were all taken in December, I still have to work on January!!!
23 December Nigel had an appointment in Soyaux the other side of Angouleme, we really picked a bad day for the drive!

I just liked the reflection in this muddy puddle seen out walking.
The Gorse seems to have the dates all wrong as do many other plants!

Our garden on a very grey day when a glimmer of sun suddenly poked through a cloud
Flowers on the rosemary.
Seen out walking, the farmer's way of hooking up the telephone line!!
