River walk in reverse and some car boot bargains


Above and below: found at the car boot sale on Sunday, the first four small remnants (1/4s) cost me £1 - two are Liberty prints I think -very fine lawn cotton.  The pieces on the right came, along with ALL the nearly 50 skeins of embroidery floss 2/3 Anchor - 1/3 DMC, in the prettiest little sewing box (as new) for just £3!  That largesse partly made up for paying £8.50 for a green gurgle jug, which then fell out of the car after I opened the side door (thinking I had packed it all securely into the foot well . . .)  and breaking into pieces.



Keith and I walked down by the river today - levels had dropped from yesterday, when it was a wannabe torrent again.  The smaller logs had all been swept away.


I'm trying to remember the name of this old white farmhouse up on the hill.


Above and below: beech leafy views across the river.



Above and below: the same spot by the mill, two days apart.  Upper is today.



Close up of same spot today.




The mill through the trees.


Tree stumps still lingering by the bridge.


Cottage through the trees (above) and looking downstream, below.  Off downstairs now as it's nearly 9 p.m. and I've not sat down yet this evening!
