The Joys of Exercise.

I spent yesterday Nottingham, visiting Wollaton Hall and Green's Mill.

I did more walking than I've done in a single day for years, and also climbed about 12 flights of stairs - not all at once, but here and there.

By the time I got home my legs ached so much that I feared I might never walk again, but when I got up this morning the tiredness had gone and I found I was walking better than before.

I shall try to walk about more.

Agreeable Distractions

It's a long time since I posted anything here.

Fear not, all is well, I've just been distracted by by the garden. After the cold Spring fruit is ripening late, but in copious quantities, and plants seem to be growing prodigiously fast, so I've been busy pruning shrubs, thinning plums and apples and, more recently, harvesting redcurrants and making jelly.

I've also taken quite a number of photographs of one thing and another, but haven't yet found time to put them on the web.
