I was speaking to my friend yesterday and she told me that she had noticed a significant improvement in her hay fever symptoms after she cut out ???E??? numbers from her diet.I have decided to try this out myself. I started to clear out my secret stashes of goodies this morning and took this photo of some skittles I had hidden away. I am really going to miss them!
The great skittle shoot

Fairground
This is a section of a giant Ferris wheel that was at the London Christmas fair last year.
I can admit that I was not brave enough to have a ride.
It is another photograph I found during the ???photograph housekeeping??? exercise I have been doing of late.

Fish
On a visit to the London Aquarium last month, I took this photograph of a fish.At first the fish kept moving around. I finally figured out where I was going wrong. I had politely asked the fish to “stand still”. Of course fish don’t stand, do they?
When I asked, politely of course, for it to “swin still”, it kindly obliged.

The neon sign
This is a picture I took a while back with a lens I had just bought.
Remembering how pleased I was with my new toy makes me smile now.
I took it from the inside of the window.

The lady in red
This is my way of saying sorry for being away for so long.??I am going to do better going forwards.
I have missed being here to share my world with you.
My rose bud is slowly changing into a lovely rose. This and the lovely warm weather outside have put a smile on my face.
I hope it does the same for you.
Slowly melting
So it turns out that the weatherman was not wrong about the snow.
I took this picture of some snow on one of the bushes outside starting to melt.
I may post some other pictures I have taken later.
Enjoy the day.

Playing with water
With the help of my enthusiastic hand model, Lavender, I tried out some experimental photos with water.
Here is one of the pictures I took.
And the weather? It is now freezing and I just heard the weatherman say that there is snow on the way!
Tulips in the window
This is a picture of some tulips that I took this afternoon.
Once again it is very cold today, but at least the sun made a very welcome appearance. Everything is much better when the sun shines.
The forecast says it will be sunny over the weekend too. It would be great if this is true.
In any case, have a great weekend.
Well, hello there!
Yes, a whole month has gone by since I last posted anything and so much has changed – It’s a new year for starters!
Ahem, my manners… Happy New Year everyone!
Even though they have not found their way on here (yet), I have been taking a few pictures of late.
Meanwhile, here is something I took this afternoon.
Have a great day.
The end is nigh!
Truly, 2008 is fast coming to an end.
Sadly for me, I have spent most of the last few days in bed nursing myself back to health having been hit by the worst flu bug ever!
I will have to rely on some older photos for now until I have the strength to get out there and capture any new shots. Today, I present a bright and sunny day at the seaside.
Enjoy!
