Self Portrait Tuesday

This month’s theme is reflections – I’d love to use my very first SPT pic again, but that feels like cheating, so I’ve used one of our garden shed instead. This captures its ramshackleness beautifully – we were going abandon it, but my FIL insisted on reroofing it – very successfully, except that now there is something in there (we’ve no idea what) that makes John’s hands swell up. It’s a novelty for him to be the allergy sufferer, especially since I don’t have any problems with it at all.

Oooh – I saw something very odd this morning – a large party (20+) of middle-aged men and women clearly out for a serious ramble. They were all togged up in fleeces, with hats, scarves, gloves and alpenstocks – they would have looked very appropriate in the Lake District – but not really in the grounds of a primary school in very flat Cambridgeshire!

I have children calling for baked beans – I must go and be motherly. (I’m about 1 evening off an FO – very exciting!)

three comments:

How funny! Although I have come across “fair weather” hikers before who seem to like getting togged up in THE most expensive stuff possible, and then don’t go very far/very high up at all!
