Randomy photo - socks with separate toes. I got myself few cheap pairs to try it, and surprisingly they are comfy.

Jemima's Photo - A couple of seagulls perching on top of the Chapel in Newcastle.  Damn birds have no respect! :-D


Damn Birds :-D

Day 34 - 13.03.2011

Randomy photo - picture of the rare native species from the area. This grass is killed off in most of the area around 19 century by importing the European grasses that cattle preferred. And now they feed cattle with the corn....

Jemima's Photo - Thought I'd have a Spring theme for my photos this week so here's some frogspawn that's in the pond in our back garden.  I'll have to do a follow up on this!

Day 33 - 12.03.2011

Jemima's Photo - You can always tell when I've forgotten to take a photo in the day time because I end up photographing something from around the house!  This time it's the saviour of my stomach :-D  My beloved strawberry flavoured Gaviscon tablets - without a dose of these every day I'd be riddled with acid indigestion.  Ooh the joys of pregnancy!!

Saviour of my stomach!
Randomy photo - My sewing machine. I was repairing 'my man' t-shirt. :-)

Day 32 - 11.03.2011

Jemima's Photo - Back at the hospital today so took a photo of how far on the demolition had got on.  For an idea of scale the water is coming from the same place as in the last photo.  The whole bit of building that was being demolished on Monday is gone!

More demolition!
Randomy photo - A consequence of being in the relationship with the nature lover. Mine loves bighorn sheep so this is my Christmas pressie :-)
A bighorn ram :-)

Day 31 - 10.03.2011

Jemima's Photo - Eek!  I knew it was cold!  Hailstones in March - not a good thing at all :(

Hailstones in March
Randomy photo - Curious position of the small dome foundations. The bigger dome foundations go now into the water hence the flooding inside.

Day 30 - 09.03.2011

Jemima's Photo - Brrr.... it's got cold again so inspired by Randomy's photo of her log fire I took one of my own!  (Ahem... nothing wrong with my imagination!  I didn't leave the house so had to take inspiration from somewhere!)

Lovely fire!
Randomy photo - A water levels inside the main telescope dome. Since it sits in the lake, the foundations are often flooded and this is the level water reached during this winter.

Day 29 - 08.03.2011

Jemima's Photo - The lake in Spa on a lovely day

The lake at Spa

Randomy photo - There was a storm previous day which caused rather big waves on the lake. A day later you can see debris on the causeway...
