Positivity

 Today, up to now. Well I had to adjust my spinning wheel, it started jamming up, it seems I have now cleared it.  Then there was the vacuum cleaner.  I cleaned the brush head and emptied the cylinder, and have got rid of the funny noise it developed.  Answered my emails, and my phone, I have decided to call Andrew my 'guardian angel' as he has dealt with a very thorny issue for me.  Lillie is having a takeaway tonight in celebration, the end of 'A' level exams, and another phase of her life opening up.  

There is a thing called Positive News perhaps I should consult each day and give a flavour of the day, or perhaps hitch my large, rather unwieldy external hard drive to this computer for the photographs on it.  But I am scared of messing this computer up, which provides music, knowledge, friends and drama.  I am watching 'New Tricks' at the moment as I spin, my daughter calls it pension porn. It has struck me that we always compartmentalise everyone into their little cubbyholes, labelling them down till we only have to speak a word and a picture arises in the mind.

Well here is some news, how about making a mountain presidential, it would have a council of experts to rule for it.

"Its origins lie in the global Rights of Nature movement, which aims to give rivers, oceans and mountains the same legal rights as humans."

The mountain is in Iceland and the mountain is called Snaefellsjokull. You will just have to imagine the two dots over the 'o'.

There was a lovely set of photos on F/B this morning, it was of the Marlborough Downs.  A hare sits, long ears alert, and then there were a set of birds this photographer had managed to capture.  Also recorded were three types of wagtails spied up there.   The grey wagtail favourite bird of mine, often to be found on the pavement, little tail wagging up and down. 

Now here is a positive photo of my daughter with  our old neighbour from Calne, many  years ago and we are at Rievaulax Abbey..........................................................

One other thing I have on F/B is historic roses.  Nothing is more beautiful than a rose, and this one must have been in the Bath garden.

Then there are flower gardens - Hyland House, Chelmsford

And then there are weird old trees, again at Hyland House.
