Sunday Pic spam. I bring you... daffodils and decay...!

This week I took some pictures of a few places that I pass regularly when I take Mum's wee dog for a walk.

When I was a child I used to love some of the cottages at Cranstal, an area between Bride village and the Point of Ayre - they were what my cousin called 'houses with hair nets on' - and I finally took pictures of a couple of them to share. Also there is one taken in the church garden this morning with flowers!

This picture set also contains another 'interesting gateway' - which brought just_ann_now to mind!

Also some variants on natural roofing... ( Cranstal and Kerroodhoo )

There isn't much else going on in life at the minute; work is reasonably busy and my manager, after a year off through ill-health, has been back for a week of half-days and realised that she cannot cope, so she is off ill again and has applied to take early retirement on health grounds. So soon there will be changes.

D-d comes home for two weeks next Saturday, which will be lovely.

And, with any luck, I might finish The Winter Tale before midsummer even if I haven't got it finished for the beginning of spring!
