  • A rain chain is altogether a much more satisfying thing than a length of plastic drainpipe, don’t you think? . The small courtyard garden at the @theleachpottery is made up of rain chains, carefully placed pots and covered walkways. Even in the rain, it makes you pause a while and just enjoy the moment. . . #theslowdowncollective #smallmomentsofcalm #aslowmoment
  • So Sesame Street is 50! Which has sort of blown my mind. . Who was your favourite character? Mr Snuffleupegus for me. . And my favourite feature was “One of these kids is doing his own thing”. I’m humming it right now. . Also do I win the picture entirely unrelated to caption competition? I couldn’t get Big Bird to stand in the light long enough 😘 . . . #inasoftlight #aquietstyle_light #mystoryoflight #lostinthelightclass
  • I normally picture areas of the country in particular colours. Do you know what I mean? . So Cornwall is all blues and whites while the North of Devon is a lush patchwork of green. In my mind’s eye this corner of Suffolk is bleached gold and creams, forever bathed in faded summer. . I may have to revise my thoughts. Because right now it seems to be mostly bathed in mud. Wet, brown, sticky mud. The spaniel minds not one bit of course. Well not until we get home and I wave the hose at him. . . . . #great_wide_somewhere #thisprettyengland
  • Since we got rid of our bedroom radio/speaker/cd (cd! Remember those), we’ve been relying on a neat little Alexa to wake us up to the sound of Radio 4. . She frequently fails. I fear darker forces may be at work here, it feels so personal 🤔 but the IT literate guy next to me assured me it’s more me than Alexa.. . Anyways, as the mornings get darker and I fail to wake up easily, I’m contemplating one of those daylight/birdsong clocks. So who has one and how do you like it? Also, someone please tell me the £30 ones are as good as the £200 one ☺️ . . . #myquietbeauty #poetryofsimplethings #seasonspoetry #beautyofstillmoments
  • Confession - I eat the very same thing for breakfast everyday for weeks (probably months 🙈) at a time. After a summer of yoghurt and muesli it seems porridge season has arrived. . In my defence, I’m much more adventurous with my other meals, indeed my family might say too adventurous by half. . . . . . #slowandsimpledays #simpleandstill #ofsimplethings #inasoftlight
