There are still plenty of Dyers in the area, but it is a case of how are the mighty fallen. I am enjoying my walking and am off to Burry Port for a coastal walk with a friend this afternoon.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-88497067338044543732014-07-02T15:18:23.537-07:002014-07-02T15:18:23.537-07:00The foal through the leaves is my favourite photo ...The foal through the leaves is my favourite photo too. <br /><br />BB - it is so good to know that you are well and out walking again. Such beautiful countryside you have and so many different wild flowers to ours.<br /><br />Interesting to learn about the poet John Dyer.Dartford Warblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352965211143836326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-86837016402482318062014-07-02T08:42:56.651-07:002014-07-02T08:42:56.651-07:00Em - I think I know what caused it now - and it ha...Em - I think I know what caused it now - and it has done so before - and it's a high quality Strawberry and Rhubarb syrup (as in squash). I have mine weakish and let down with sparkling mineral water and each time I have had it I have noticed a reaction. Which means I have to chuck the rest away and at £3 a bottle, that's annoying. Having a broken night's sleep makes me ratty and/or weepy, and several nights like that and you don't want to be under the same roof as me!Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-39115158032157365002014-07-02T02:17:57.996-07:002014-07-02T02:17:57.996-07:00Lovely to see you out and about again but sorry ab...Lovely to see you out and about again but sorry about the 4.30am inhaler incident! I ahve a nasty cold so I can't really tell what is hay fever and what the snivelling snot bag that I am currently. Do you find it makes you irritable? The Magpies are driving me absolutely mad at the moment and I'm sure I don't usually find them this annoying. <br /><br />I absolutely love that picture of the foal through the leaves - beautiful.Em Parkinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04789754528697848623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-47418964126050866042014-07-02T00:16:47.716-07:002014-07-02T00:16:47.716-07:00Pat - I spoke too soon about the improvement in my...Pat - I spoke too soon about the improvement in my breathing, as I had to take my inhaler early (4.30 a.m.) but as they'd cut for hay/haylage in several fields I passed yesterday afternoon on my walk, I shall put it down to that. I think the exercise outweighs the downside at the moment. They have cut the lanes round here (scalped them more like) so a lot of the wild flowers have been taken out.<br /><br />Cait - glad you enjoyed them. I miss horses and it was lovely to make a fuss of the bay mare.<br /><br />CT - Meadowsweet is so pretty with its froth of flowers.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-1567790960729841552014-07-01T13:11:19.643-07:002014-07-01T13:11:19.643-07:00Love the horsey pics and the wildflowersLove the horsey pics and the wildflowersCait O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04569760764766505179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-57365802188396751522014-07-01T12:15:04.855-07:002014-07-01T12:15:04.855-07:00Love all the wild flowers.

I would find that strange, though in a loooooooong hot summer our rivers get very low and streams dry up. That doesn't happen very often though. Glad you liked the mare. She was a poppet.<br /><br />Smallholder - I'd love to know what's growing along your lanes now, for a comparison.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-26182223201303077842014-07-01T10:15:38.812-07:002014-07-01T10:15:38.812-07:00Lovely photos today.

Our rivers only have water in the winter and summer monsoons.
