Awake now, he watches.

They gathered and the seeds were sown.
Beginning had ended
Today’s Tale in ten words penned after a visit to Richard’s field where we scattered yellow rattle seed over the prepared ground and trod it in. The yellow rattle will suppress grass growth and prepare the ground well for creation of a new meadowland.

Of marking our journey of departure and remembering through mementos
Today’s Tale in ten words inspired by a visit to Bridport Art Centre’s latest exhibition – What Remains. Well worth a visit to stir the pondering mind. It is a dialogue between artists Mandy Dike and Ben Rigby and between the absolute nature of death and the ongoing challenge of existence.

Farewell dear friend. Sweet Bramble brightened our lives. Thank you.
Today’s Tale in ten words, albeit somewhat sad for us today as we have said goodbye to our dear companion of eight years who has left us far too soon. We thought we had lost Bramble 20 days ago and she has fought hard to keep up her strength, struggling to eat when it was so difficult for her and we have had time to say goodbye and she seems to have visited all of her favourite places, resting on Mike’s shed roof, hiding under the decking, visiting Harriet’s bench and most of the neighbouring gardens but today she has rested on a bench in our garden with her brother, Henry, keeping a watchful eye. and where I said my goodbyes.
Her final resting place is beside the rosemary and lavender – remembrance and tranquility.
Dear Bramble – time to say goodbye
