How is it that I managed to write a blog post every day for nearly two weeks and now it's been over a week since the last one?! I think it doesn't help that it's the school holidays as my usual mush-brain turns into holiday mush-brain and I have no idea what day it is 😀 It just goes to show how we manage to fit things in - or not - but here I am at last with a catch up from the last week or so.
These photos were take on one of the walks I did before small daughter broke up for the Easter holidays. We were out at the Nine Arches in Earlestown again and I took a different path which runs parallel to the main cycle path. This wide grassy area was lined on both sides by what I thought were hawthorn bushes but reading this post of Lucy's, I think maybe they're blackthorn instead. I'm now thinking we might have a blackthorn tree in our garden and that's been a mystery to me for the nearly 18 years we've lived here so that's good to know!
