Dry Ink

An unexpected e-mail early this morning made me happy. The long awaited document had arrived.

Wet Ink

After nearly a year of delays, we have signed and paid for the land. Our home is one step closer.

Christmas Lights in Lyon

After a subdued festival of lights, Lyon’s Christmas lights were particularly welcome this year.

Christmas Village in a Garden Centre

Our local Botanic garden centre has a Christmas Village. Still a shop but a fun outing on a Sunday in December.

Fête des lumières - Festival of Lights in 2015

Despite the grand spectacles being cancelled, Lyon’s light festival took place in its traditional form of candles placed in windows.

Gingerbread Biscuits Filmed

We filmed the making of our gingerbread snowflake biscuits. Watch the four minute short film and find out what it takes to make these tasty treats.

Processional Cross – Gloucester Cathedral

You have to love these unexpected finds. Cathedrals hold an unbelievable role in history. The artefacts inside are often no less engaging.

The unexpectedly photogenic city of Gloucester caught my attention last December. Among the photos I took was this set of carved stone faces.

Gloucester

Gloucester is not high on the list of must see cities in the United Kingdom. Yet our trip last December has been a source of fond memories over the year.
