Deep in a duvet!

It snowed. I caught a cold. Couldn't do a thing for about a week, but I took some pictures of the snow. This is probably the coldest December I've seen in a long time. We still have frozen icicles in our back garden.

On a hot summer day, you just want to have your swimming gear with you for a cheeky one, just in case ;-)

Unexpected finds

I realise I was just about to slag off Redhill here - and why not? :-P But, really it has it's hidden beauty. I woke up in it today, looked out the window and saw what a lovely day it was so I decided to go for a walk.

And look what I found...

Autumn days out: Falmouth Harbour views, good eats

Falmouth Harbour, the third largest natural deep water harbour in the world, offers some very beautiful views. A good enough reason for you to stay at the range of accommodation near it. I usually take a walk here almost every other weekend, can't get enough of it!
And if you are visiting Falmouth this autumn, you should check out my favourite thing to do at this time of the year: attending the annual Oyster Festival in October. Delicious and quality Cornish seafood galore!







And my favourite colour :-)

Autumn days out: Leith Hill, Dorking


Leith Hill is the highest point in south-east England, although frankly it didn't feel like much of an effort climbing all the way up to the top where there is an impressive Gothic tower - but then again, most of Surrey is relatively flat. The view across the English channel is breathtaking, however on a foggy day it can be a bit difficult to see. Still, if you enjoy walking in rugged woodland, and across beautiful countrysides, you are going to love making your way there.

Here is a guide on how to get there and walk all the way up.
