Live Long and Proper
Just like a Buzzin’ Fly
Come into your life
Now I float away
Like honey in the sun

Summer Social
It’s interesting how the word ‘social’ can be used in both fun and absolute opposite contexts. Continue reading “Summer Social”
San Salvador Al Revés
It’s July!
We’ve just come back from a lovely wedding in Swansea. Good weather, great people, and lots of love.
This time last year we had quite a different adventure. Continue reading “San Salvador Al Revés”
Hens and garden
Life has become very chicken-orientated. Continue reading “Hens and garden”
Following the Moon
It’s May, it’s hot, and we’re going to Portugal next week to meet my Mum. It’s already been a year since her last visit. Commitments and responsibilities increase with chickens and seedlings, but without a correlating decrease in time away from home.

New windows and doors should be coming soon, which will be double glazed so we don’t have … Continue reading Febrero

Vidanueva
It’s that time again, where I have an itch to write and a lack of suitable space to scratch it. Not really, though. It’s so easy to fall down the perfectionism road and waste hours trying to come up with a new blog name, something that encompasses everything whilst being relevant and not too specific at the same time. Nevermind. Peace and Pollen will do … Continue reading Vidanueva
