Shocking!!

Lying in bed the other night, we had a terrific thunderstorm. It banged and cracked overhead for almost two hours. Normally storms seem to move off after a while but this just parked itself over the house and didn’t move for ages. So I got out of bed and opened the bedroom doors to take some pictures of the lightning.

It was funny lightning – not forked lightning but massive sheet lightning that lit up the entire sky. So, below there are three pictures taken in the middle of the night when it was pitch dark. One taken without the lightning, the other two taken just as the lightning cracked and completely lit up the sky. Those two pictures look as though they were taken in the daytime. Bizarre!

The storm finally moved away about 3.00 in the morning and I was tired the next day. But very happy with my pictures! Here they are…

Oh, the old place is now the new place!

I forgot to say, the building works are done and we are in!

I’d love you to see what we have done to the old offices. A few pictures, below. You might remember the old front of the building and my office in the back corner. The inside is all very different now but from the outside it looks the same. Lots of space for everyone now! It was a big project but it is finally done. Phew!

Now I have to make a start on the outside.

Oscar and Garfield say Hi!

Oscar and Garfield in Wales 2015 Just a swift snap of the boys outside the cottage in Wales. They’re very well travelled now as they come with me everywhere. Except London. Normally they stay in the car and look after it for me! 🙂
