I'm happy. The summer has arrived. We have a wild orchid in our garden, a purple flower among the grass-blades and plantains. I saw four or five house-martins flying round a barn by the church. They are too fast for taking photos of them, but I did take one photo of a little bird sat on a wire. A wren was singing sweetly above me. There are more purple flowers in the hedges; many tall foxgloves. Purple and white are the colours now. The white flowers are elder and hawthorn, with climbing wild roses.














Geryow rag hedhyw. Words for today.

The world is full of signs, more signs than usual. I can see two signs at the same time – a road sign and an estate agent’s signboard. It’s true – a ruin is for sale – but is it buyable? Two miles from here there are more notices by the church. It’s a sad thing – there are no services in November. And there are more notices on the parish board. The Countryside Code: Respect other people; Protect the natural environment; Enjoy the outdoors. Deg ger rag hedhyw:  Ten words for t...
