Reasons to be cheerful (part one)

I can hear bird song instead of the continual drone of aeroplanes in and out of Manchester Airport,traffic on the main road and trains going into Manchester.
I can smell Spring in the air,blossom ,new growth,new mown grass being cut by locked in neighbours,instead of cooking smells from the 3 takeaways,pub and 2 restaurants at the end of the road and exhaust fumes.
I could if allowed walk along the pavement without having to squeeze past all the office workers parked cars as the 2 office buildings are closed.
The lack of dust on surfaces in the house has amazed me.
Still scary,worrying times,I know but what damage we humans do to the planet.

Greetings at Ostara

Hoping we all stay well in these difficult times. All I'm doing is focusing on what I hope will be a great Autumn and catching up on the handspinning that I've been meaning to get around to for ages!
Keep safe.

Farewell to The Pines

The family home being prepared for demolition.Lovely old mock Tudor-y,Arts and Craftsish house where I spent my youth.I'm sad to see it looking so empty and unloved and hope the little resident ghost will be alright!
