Off On Our Hols


For the first time since 2020 we are venturing abroad. Furthermore, we are going on a plane.

We are going to spend a week at a villa in Son Bou, Menorca, and will be staying with the rellies from Merseyside.

The rellies are travelling from Manchester while Gerry and I are flying from Gatwick.

There has been lots in the news recently about travel chaos, cancelled flights, long queues and so on. Consequently we are just a little trepidatious. Fingers crossed, it all goes smoothly.

We are currently sitting waiting at the assistance desk. It is 03:20 but the desk doesn’t open until 04:00. This will be our first hurdle.

Pecker Time … Again !!!


Great Spotted Woodpecker

I can’t get enough of these birds. We had four in the garden yesterday.

Our back garden fence provides a wildlife highway, running North to South. Here is a Grey Squirrel, heading in a southerly direction.

Amaryllis

The 2nd year that this fabulous plant has bloomed for us. I do believe it is actually bigger and better than before.
