I always look forward to doing these two last blogs of the Year, but this year I really thought I wouldn't have much to share. I was wrong. Looking through all my photos made me realize that I have had a good year in spite of Covid restrictions.
JANUARY
Lovely fire in our dining room.
A piece of Tonder Lace that I made, this one is called 'Little hearts of Denmark'
Our darling cat Loki, who sadly is no longer with us. More about him later.
FEBRUARY
The fob watch that my Dad brought back for my Gran from Denmark in 1945, all clean and beautifully mended now :)
Looks cold out there! The ships are either leaving Dover Harbour or approaching it.
Sunset as seen from our sitting room.
Daffodils, a lovely sign of Spring :)
Red berries, not sure what the plant is!
The Garden of Rest behind St. Georges' Church in the centre of Deal. It looked lovely with a sprinkling of snow.
MARCH
Crocuses in Walmer Castle.
Beautiful Deal seafront, photo taken from the Pier.
Kearsney Abbey, Dover. Two friends having a chat??
Kearsney Abbey again, I love the sun shining under the arch.
A sunset photo taken from our sitting room.
My favourite Church :) St. Marys Church, Betteshanger. This is now the church of Northbourne Park School.
The weeping willow trees on the Quay, Sandwich
APRIL
The coast of France looks very close in this photo, it is actually 22 miles away across the Channel, but it was a very clear day :)
The entrance to our local Cemetery
Lovely blossom on one of the trees in the Cemetery.
As I said earlier this was our lovely cat Loki, who we had to have put to sleep in April. He was just unwell, but no-one could tell us what was wrong with him. He had a few nights in the Cat Hospital but was no better when he came home. Sadly we could see him getting worse so had to make the very hard decision to have him put to sleep. His brother Merlin died last September, so to have two cats leave us in 6 months was horrible :(
Later in April this adorable little fellow was looking for a home, so he came to live with us. His name is Smudgie, he is just adorable and is a proper character. All our neighbours know him as he goes visiting in some of their houses, he just saunters in and makes himself at home.
MAY
Our local park looking nice in the Spring sunshine.
Lovely Sandwich Bay
Sandwich Bay again, with Thanet in the distance.
Our daughter had a special birthday this month, as there were still Covid restrictions in place we ordered this cream tea to collect from our local cafe. It was delicious, we enjoyed all of it very much :)
JUNE
Walmer Green in the sunshine :)
My amaryllis which bloomed in June instead of December....
A squirrel at Gazen Salts in Sandwich.
A beautiful peony in Walmer Castle garden.
This squirrel found the perfect place to eat his nut, the hole in the tree was a perfect fit :)
Gazen Salts, Sandwich, such a lovely peaceful place.
Walmer Castle Gardens
