In the Time of the Skylark – Listen (7)
My Dearest Boy, What a thing it is to stop and listen! To a young child, given space and time, this comes naturally. It is one of the ways in which we learn. In this time of the skylark’s song I have been reminded to cherish this gift. Ah, my dearest boy, I tried to…
In the Time of the Skylark – Hope (4)
16 April 2020 My Dearest Boy, I once heard a writer tell how she overcame procrastination. She explained that she sat at her desk, picked up her pen and wrote the words “Once Upon a Time”. In the same way, if I unroll my yoga mat I’m likely to practise yoga and if I step…
In the time of the skylark – rainbows (3)
8 April 2020 My Dearest Boy, The skylark is now my alarm clock. Each morning it is up before I am awake; afield before I am up and “breakfasted” before I am afield (Thank you, Mr Hardy). I walk early and the deer and rabbits are surprised to see me. Today as I sat on…

The title picture is from a card given to me yesterday by a very special friend to wish me good luck whilst walking the Pilgrims’ Way. I have given my trek the title of a Gratitude Walk because not only am I walking in gratitude for five years recovery but also because I truly…

Cuts and Alleyways – A Nostalgic St Albans Walk: Part 3
My St Albans Walk Continues My nostalgic walk (find Part 1 and Part 2 here) around St Albans continued. Continuing my fascination with small doors I popped into the Abbey, where I remember marvelling as a child at how much smaller grown men were years ago! The lovely Vintry Gardens…
A Walk Near Bridport – Hills and Holloways (following Julia Bradbury)
If there is such a thing as re-incarnation, please let me come back as Julia Bradbury, walking near Bridport. I know that there must be lots of hard work, paperwork and organisation behind her walking programmes, but how wonderful to be able to make her living sharing her passion, such as was apparent in…
