I spotted this little wild cyclamen in the garden this morning. The seeds must have blown in from somwhere last year, so I've cleared a little space round it in the hopes it will seed and multiply.

This is a replica of the boat Lewis and Clark used while navigating the Yellowstone River in Montana. Not nearly as big or nice as other boats I've seen here lately.

Thank you! The river's photogenic enough without too much of my help :P And yes, we have muskrats, although I've never seen them personally.
Not a very good photo but this is the Southwark Cathedral or if you prefer, the Cathedral and Collegiate Church of St Saviour and St Mary Overie. As someone who is a quiet person I think the first name is better for me. I wonder if anyone can tell me what time I took this photo....lol

I took a trip to the aircraft museum at Duxford last month and took LOADS of photos. This is a Westland Lysander, used during WW2 to drop off and pick up people from occupied Europe.
In London or not in London, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler to the feet to walk Through the rain and cold of summer time, Or to take the Underground and by doing so Deprive ourselves the sights. To see, to not see

Great photos from everyone since I've last posted. Jakeroo's chipmunks made me laugh quite hard, and Lucy is lovely!
She might not be as clever as Jinx, but Misty was certainly interested in something on our walk today. I saw nothing unusual when I looked.

Hi Ren. I just don't seem to have the time to post photos as often as I used to.
This is one of my favoUrite aircraft (one of many), a Thunderbolt. This one is still airworthy. I hope to get back to Duxford when they're having one of their airshows to see it in action.

David: does that tower have any "history" at all? or was it built just to accessorise the rest of the property?
Martin: That's my favourite, whether it's historically significant or not (because I like the colours/pattern LOL) of all the aircraft you've posted so far.

That's Ruxley Towers... a rather nice house if you've got the legs for stairs. I'm not sure if it's still for sale but I saw the asking price of 3.5 million somewhere. That's pounds sterling of course. Here are some more views.
