Hello Blog!  It's good to be back!  I'm catching up with other blogs, and still in the midst of school holidays, but today I'm linking up to Really Random Thursday at Live a Colorful Life with some of the strange and wonderful things seen over the last couple of weeks:

Some actual sunshine, in Wales even

A masterpiece of engineering - Telford's aquaduct


A tiny monk hiding in a 13thC abbey

Did you spot him?

A garden (designed by students) at the Tatton Park flower show

A hoverfly on cow parsley

Bee on lamium

Tiger Moth found on the pavement outside a shop

Ragwort growing by the riverside

Strange tree with eyes

Ornamental thorns

Got to love pigs
and:
Someone admiring the view from a first floor window


I'm working my way through the great tutorials I've missed on the On the Let's Get Acquainted blog hop and I'll be making a point of visiting the two bloggers who are up today:

Jennifer from GH Quilting
Danny from MommyFor Reals

    What lovely photos! I love the hidden monk! I take it you have been out and about and on your travels? And sunshine in Wales, surely a first?! (My grandparents live there, so we often compare the weather and it's invariably raining there lol). Have you managed any sewing in the holidays?
