Countryside in bloom

The great thing about having friends that own a farm is the random breaks to the countryside you can have. Although it is not in the middle of nowhere (quite close to Glastonbury, If you stand on a hill that is part of their land you can actually see the Glastonbury Tor) it's nice to just get away for a few days.

My family and I stayed in a cottage just next door to my friends house, they are in the process of renovating it and turning it into a holiday cottage, so we were the first official guests!

Although I didn't take many pictures of what we actually got up to, I did take an awful lot of pictures of the flowers that were dotted around their land.

They're all so pretty!

And of course, I took some photos of their lovely farm dog, Jess.

Ever get the feeling that you're being watched ;)

Quit taking photos of flowers and play with me!

All in all, It was a lovely countryside retreat- even if it was only brief!

Sunday rambling #1

Today, we wondered down to a local market to buy this years hanging baskets. I am one of those people who loves strolling around these places, there are so many hidden treasures to find! It's places like these that my magpie-like tendencies come out.

A somber moment of our day was coming across a house clearance stall, it is obvious that whoever used to own all the lovely antiques had passed and that someone had been left to deal with all his/her belongings. Among the array of china and teddies, we came across an old wedding photo. It seemed sad that someone had put a price onto a memory; I was tempted to buy it just to keep the memory alive.

On another note, Eurovision was last night.I actually watched all of it for once and-as usual- the selection of craziness was on form. 

This is such a cute idea, future husband take note!! ;)

The weather has been so weird lately, no word of a lie as I am typing this there is a double rainbow outside my window. So i'll leave you with this.
