Ramblings from the city's edge. Wednesday, 28 April 2010. Oak, Totley Hall Farm. Ancient oak, Totley Hall Farm May 1st. Originally uploaded by goldsally. I love 'em. Can't bear to think what the landscape might become. 29 April 2010 at 07:12. Good to see you back Sally! I love oak trees too, have a lovely one in my garden. I had heard a while ago that there is a new disease affecting them - lets just hope that it doesnt have the same effect as Dutch Elm Disease did - that would be a tragedy.

Greenoak Journal: John Donne and the shortest day...
http://greenoakjournal.blogspot.com/2009/12/john-donne-and-shortest-day.html
Ramblings from the city's edge. Tuesday, 22 December 2009. John Donne and the shortest day. A Nocturnal upon St Lucy's Day, being the shortest day". Tis the year's midnight, and it is the day's,. Lucy's, who scarce seven hours herself unmasks;. The sun is spent, and now his flasks. Send forth light squibs, no constant rays;. The whole world's sap is sunk;. The general balm the hydroptic earth hath drunk,. Whither, as to the bed's-feet, life is shrunk,. Dead and interred; yet all these seem to laugh,.

Studded Flip Flops: Highland Fling 2013
http://studdedflipflops.blogspot.com/2013/05/highland-fling-2013.html
Tuesday, 7 May 2013. What madness is it that makes someone want to run 53 miles through Scotland in April? Well, let's see. How Did We Get Here? 4 years ago a work colleague, let's call him Clive. I won't bore you with the details, but I didn't feel ready for a 2011 attempt. I was ready for a go in 2012 but broke my ankle in the winter, so with a deferred place to the 2013 race, it was decided that this would be it. This has stuck with me since I read it in his blog and proved invaluable in the race.

Greenoak Journal: Fieldfares
http://greenoakjournal.blogspot.com/2009/12/fieldfares.html
Ramblings from the city's edge. Friday, 11 December 2009. Why do I seem to write this blog mostly in Winter? Perhaps I find it the most beautiful of seasons - especially when it is under such threat. Today the real symbols of midwinter burst out of the bony trees near Woodthorpe - a clatter of fieldfares. Here is what John Clare has to say in a gem of a sonnet:. Emmonsails Heath in Winter. I love to see the old heath's withered brake. Mingle its crimpled leaves with furze and ling. Nice to see you back a...

http://greenoakjournal.blogspot.com/2010/06/baby-housemartins.html
Ramblings from the city's edge. Sunday, 13 June 2010. About 20 baby housemartins at the gate at the end of Totley Hall Lane - all landing together to peck at some wettish mud. Of course, I didn't have my camera with me. 23 June 2010 at 23:13. I absolutely love the photos on your blog. I feel like Im right there! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
