I missed Flowery Friday, but

I had the idea on Wednesday when I was doing the wintery photos that I should do the few remaining flower photos on Friday. Then Friday turned out to be our normal morning stuff, then a nice swim, then some errands, then coming home to Linda making a new quail on risotto recipe, then eating that, and then it was something in the afternoon, then we watched some Barnaby.

(Optional digression. Linda had got some Midsomer Murders discs out of the library a long time ago, but I hadn't cared for them, or wasn't in the mood. Some of the contortions they go through to make something look or sound eerie, kind of makes me roll my eyes. Then we got Amazon Prime, and discovered Midomer was one of the things we could watch. Linda wanted to start from the beginning, and I was interested enough to give it a try. We got hooked. There's been a few clunkers along the way, and we sometimes figure out who dunnit. I like watching for people we've seen in other shows. The most recent one is the guy that played Giaus Baltar.)

These are throughout the year that for whatever reason didn't get blogged along the way. It's in chron order, early to quite late in the year.

I'm looking to finish off a roll of black and white film today, and with any luck get them into the lab over the weekend.

And that's all done for last year. It's going to seem like an eternity till the next flowers pop up in our garden.

Me saying goodbye to Nefertitti. She was a very sick kitty at this point, and later that day we took her to the vet for that last favour to a well loved friend.

  1. Great photos, as always - makes me pine for spring!
    I watch Midsomer Murders when I'm at Mom's (PBS carries it with other British shows on a Sat. night) and don't mind it. That being said, we can get it on Knowledge network (Canada's answer to PBS - which, btw, carries Brokenwood, a New Zealand detective show you two might enjoy), but have yet to watch it with Ron. Too many other (better) crime drama on our Britbox (another suggestion, Shetland...pretty sure it's on Prime and it's really good, dark but good).
    Right now, we're hooked on Unforgotten - a cold case type of show!!!

  2. Another lovely set. I particularly like the first image for the hairy details. Cheers, Sean
