Gai Pearl Marshall was a talented dancer who went on to become the doyenne of fashion public relations. She started her dancing career with the Bluebell Girls, appeared regularly on Italian television and later handled the publicity for Jean Muir, Missoni and Moschino. A flamboyant woman, she captured the hearts of several Italian actors during the many years she spent in that country.
Children have lost touch with the natural world and are unable to identify common animals and plants, according to a survey. Half of youngsters aged nine to 11 were unable to identify a daddy-long-legs, oak tree, blue tit or bluebell, in the poll by BBC Wildlife Magazine. The study also found that playing in the [...]
We had thunderstorms Friday, but the sun shone Saturday morning and the air was very fresh. I laced up my new trail shoes and headed out, up and down and uP and down and UP through the doggie parks and escarpments of Ranchlands, Hawkwood and Edgemont. I even got all the way into Nose Hill [...]
We like to spend sunny, lazy Sunday afternoons in the park amongst the bluebells, watching the ducks gossip. Well, we have to make the most of our Sundays since so many of them aren't sunny. Even in Summer. We sit on the grass or a bench eating our M&S sandwiches, sharing our diet coke and crisps, just happy to be together. The last time we were there, a photographer came along with a newly wed Asian...
We spent this morning clearing up the garden after heavy rain and wind over the weekend most unseasonal. Then took Maisie for an hour through the woods and came across a display of foxgloves almost as spectacular as the bluebells. So here they are. And by the way Mum has had a cortisone injection in her shoulder this evening so lets hope that stops the pain for her.
My grandfather was born in the 1870’s. His father was a diplomat in Buenos Aeries. One of seven sons, he was brought up in an age when terrifying stories were used to teach children important facts. This is the story he told my mum as a young girl: “One day we were invited to a tennis party. [...]
I've finished off a baby jacket which has been hanging around for a while. I haven't really enjoyed this project, but wanted to try the EZ February Jacket. The yarn seemed too heavy for a lace pattern (Elle pure wool DK) and the colour wrong for such a 'girly' pattern. However it is going for charity and I'm sure the recipient won't care, as long as it is warm! I've also finished the knitting on my...
I just had 4 days off, so did lots of stuff: -Went to the dentist for the fourth time with the same tooth. They put a screw in it then poured plastic resin around the screw. I now have a plastic tooth. For my fifth and sixth visits I will get a porcelain crown. -Went to the [...]
Ah, how swiftly the paw of Nature works its magic in such a short time. The bluebells are all gone over and sylvan glades that once were light, airy and inviting are now dark and forbidding as the trees stretch their emerald canopies wide to absorb the sun. And all this in the space of one week - Yes: I have returned from my holiday in Wales and have been out to inspect my woodlands. I am not currently...
Here we have had a very mixed bag of weather over the bank holiday weekend. Today has been overcast and windy but relatively dry. Yesterday turned out to be warm and sunny especially in the afternoon and it was a good opportunity to play catch up in the garden. I'm always amazed at just how quickly everything grows at this time of year, in fact I wish I could slow the clock down because in the local...
The bluebells are out in force here in Wales,the month of May is so exciting! so much to paint so little time... the top painting is a studio work,acrylic on paper 5x8" and below is my plein air effort,oil on canvas 7x9" .
It is hard to believe that we are nearly onto the second bank holiday in Maya nd more impressively we have just had two weeks of Sunshine and stable weather. The leaves are now well on the trees and the...
