The Little Studio

We have a lovely room on the side of our bungalow its a little studio pad with twin beds, small kitchen area which includes fridge, microwave etc, en-suite, lovely view, own parking spot and own access, its available to let on a bed and breakfast basis although we will make meals under certain circumstances, so anyone looking for accommodation in the Hadrian Wall Area let me know.............

Hen Update

Our lovely brown hens are turning out to be very inquisitive, they are all over the garden. (not just ours either) They potter in the little potting shed they hop up on top of the plant pots pecking furiously at the fuchsia's, they hide under the Magnolia tree and Meander down the little track at the bottom of the paddock past our nutless Hazel (not one in sight this year) and the now wilting bramble bushes. The ladies really enjoy a tea time stroll around the village checking out the village green and next doors shubbery(hopefully not annoying anyone). However with the weather turning more inclement and on hubbys advice I started feeding them warm mash at tea time so come three pm they can now be found standing looking expectantly at our porch door all lined up chattering and foot stamping waiting for me to warm up the dish of the day. Once the said dish has been prepared they escort me at great speed down to the Hen Coup a dangerous time for me with ten hens under foot (yes I got a couple more sucker that I am) I must say though they never lift their little heads until the whole lot is devoured. They are laying nicely though so I must be doing something right..............

Hi I'm Back and Guess What I have Joined

Hello that's if there's anyone out there? I am back after taking time out from my blog . Blogging is much more a winter pursuit, hobby, obsession ? I have recently joined a creative writing class its run by a glorious lady called Sylvia who hands out inspiration and encouragement in abundance its marvellous we all think we are going to be the next JK Rowling's ah a girl can dream.. We huff and puff when the lovely Sylvia gives us our work for the day, it may be a poem or a short story who knows? you sit there twiddling your thumbs and twirling your pencil, looking at the blank page before you praying inspiration will spill forth and surprise surprise it usually does. I marvel at what appears on the page in front of me. I really do surprise myself , what I really love though is hearing all the other stories and poems we are given the same brief but the stories end up so different. We all dread the moment when we read out our latest piece to the rest of the class but its nice to get the feed back and reactions from the rest of the group... I am really enjoying myself and hopefully growing in confidence and ability mmmh only time will tell.
