Guest Blogger and A Hug

LiveWire 3 here! I have just had a day out with LiveWire 2 and my grandad to Eden. I took many, many photos in the Rainforest biome – as it is so big! I took a few photos in the Mediterranean biome but sadly my phone lost battery so I had to resist the urge to take a photo (although I actually couldn’t). There were so many beautiful sights to see but if I took a photo of everything I would have been there all day and I would have had 1,000 photos. I had a really fun day and I am ready for a nice sleep (probably dreaming about all the flowers and plants).

Yesterday this lovely card arrived from a reader in the North East who has become a friend.  It was accompanied by a little bag of beautiful sea-glass which I will incorporate into some glass work at some point.

I was in great need of a hug as I am in the throes of my second attack of gout so I couldn’t go on the planned day out with our LiveWires. The first attack was just three weeks ago. and took me by surprise. I thought it was an illness of old, male heavy drinkers and hadn’t a clue about how painful it is.  I have advice to change my lifestyle (and some medication) but as the suggested lifestyle is the way we live and eat anyway, I don’t know what to change.
Lovely T, LiveWire no 3, undertook to take some photos for me and tonight we have picked a selection for you.

Six on Saturday – Not My Garden No 2

We went to the Eden Project again on Thursday (and got snowed in. To read that story, look back at Thursday’s blog!) Although we were there only a few weeks ago, there were so many new blooms to see. Sadly, I don’t know the names of all the beauties we saw so if anyone would like to help, I would love to know. The first 5 were in the Rainforest Biome, the last in the temperate Mediterranean Biome.

Ginger Lily?

Flame pea, Katy. Choizema cordatum Fabaceae.In the Mediterranean Biome

It is the most remarkable place to visit and we are very lucky that we are only an hour or so away.

For other Six on Saturday posts, have a look at the comments on The Propagator’s blog. He’s the chap that started this fun group going.

Fabulous Day Out at The Eden Project

What a day we have had! The Eden Project is always a delight to visit but today it surpassed all expectations with the Dinosaurs Unleashed spectacle! It was hard to get photos but please enjoy the wonderful plants outside and in the Rain- forest Biome and a few fleeting photos of the young dinosaur which, somehow had escaped and was roaming around!
