Nymans - in brief

I met a good friend at Nymans today.. the forecast was for light cloud... the actual weather? Heavy rain!!... and then after we'd had lunch the rain stopped.. so we decided to have another trip around the gardens - minus the umbrella -  and the sun shone!!

I'd had my "wet weather" camera (Panasonic GM1) in my bag and finally was able to put it to use!!

So many of the trees had great amount of lichen growing.. rather like little green lights in the low-angled sunlight.  Spose it must be as a result of all the rain and wet we've had!!!

Lots of snowdrops growing and in bloom!






Great to see so many cyclamen growing...




Thanks, my friend, was good to walk and talk :)

Wet, wet, wet.... so a trip out to St Marys, Hatfield Broad Oak

Needed to get out for at least part of the day, so we went of to St Mary's Church, at Hatfield Broad Oak.






























This is rain-water filled fields... no... not a lake!

London - before Giselle

We set off early as usual - in the thick fog .. and had a wander around London before our visit to the ballet Giselle (see previous post)






























Hard to believe it's nearly the end of January!!












































We had lunch here... and delicious it was too... Shades of Vienna :D
