I've received a few messages asking to continue the 1000 words thread. It has obviously given many people pleasure and some positivity. For anyone who doesn't know, posters come on with their photographs of pretty much anything and we take it from there. Nature is always a good one.

My garden has been a sad spectacle this year, but it’s not entirely lost.

My petunias in their window boxes.

Born to be wild.

Cooling off before the heatwave begins.

A pretty path in Cornwall.

A peaceful (and weedy) river close to our home.

Lindos last week.

What do you want from your retirement home?
Friends, blue skies, unlimited food, excellent healthcare.
Donkey sanctuary this morning.

A walk along our local canal this morning.

Great photographic composition Greyduster. He is a poser!

Greyduster Sun 05-Jun-22 11:33:38

Sorry image disappeared!

I snapped this chap in the botanical gardens last week. I don’t know where he got the walnut from but I hope he enjoyed it!

Aldom Sat 04-Jun-22 08:29:08

My garden yesterday (Saturday). It's raining today.

Those shoes are genius grin no wonder we won the war!

Greyduster Fri 03-Jun-22 22:22:44

Absolutely not! I’ve seen it looking up from below!

Ali08 Fri 03-Jun-22 17:53:47

Oh flipping heck, ignore the shoes. I don't know how they managed to get there?!

Ali08 Fri 03-Jun-22 17:52:52

We found out we're going to get a new grandbaby in November, so I decided to try crochet again. We used to do it in school between the ages of say about 11-14 (boarding school, so our own choice).
Here's a poppy, and some granny squares to be made into a blanket. I've made one blanket already and my daughter says I'm 'turning into a proper Northern granny' now! Haha

Lovely doggie Joseanne - and your doggie dress!

Stunning scenery Greyduster - did you peer over?

Greyduster Fri 03-Jun-22 15:52:59

Stanage Edge in the Peak District yesterday morning before it got busy! Lots of climbers though. You wouldn’t want to be looking where he’s looking!?

The winner takes it all at a Jubilee dog show today.
