27 March: Ten Things of Thankful
In no particular order: 1. I’m thankful that the footpath leading from the source of the River Mole (this river is West Sussex’s River Styx—it disappears underground and never resurfaces, hence it’s name, Mole)—anyway, the footpath has finally dried in the spring sunshine, and it’s navigable on foot again without slipping. 2. And I’m thankful…

13.03.25: Ten Things of Thankful
In no particular order: 1. Lunar eclipse on Friday—March’s full moon is the last winter moon, and it’s called the Worm Moon—and it should be gloriously red because of the eclipse. 2. Ladybirds on daffodils, and yellow bursting out everywhere. 3. The temperature soared to 18°C (65°F) … for two days—and then everything froze again,…

6 March: Ten Things of Thankful
In no particular order: 1. I am thankful for 5 days of sub-zero temperatures (Celsius) and crystal-clear sunny skies. 2. Shrove Tuesday, also known in the UK as Pancake Day. Blueberry pancakes, bacon, and maple syrup. Unfortunately, a headache and my tummy couldn’t stomach the idea, so Shrove Tuesday was moved to Wednesday, and Wednesday…

27 Feb: Ten Things of Thankful
In no particular order: 1.) I am thankful for my “Tens” — and the relief it gives. 2.) The word thankful is insufficient: I saw 6 planets in alignment last night. 3.) Daffodils growing taller by the day, and their bright colour waiting for me. 4.) For the crow with its single white tail feather,…

20 Feb: Ten Things of Thankful
1) A quiet Sunday morning to reflect on our 45-years of adventure, 2) for all the obstacles, and lessons, and knowing that eventually one finds a way even if the path there is unexpected, 3) for the touch of a hand or a thought when everything is okay, and equally when it’s not, 4) for…

14 Feb: Ten Things of Thankful (updated with music)
In no particular order: 1. Red squirrels are returning to the forest (once endangered). Saw one run along the fence a few days ago. They are very small; half the size of a grey squirrel. This photo is from last year; it’s just so you know what they look like. 2. Thankful for YouTube. It…

7 Feb: Ten Things of Thankful
In no particular order: 1. Well, thank goodness for that; my 32-year old Bamix hand blender finally died. Now I can buy another one with a beast-like motor that can chew its way through a banana and yogurt. 2. Full fibre broadband installation on Friday morning—my mobile will still keep me connected, but no internet…

1 Feb: Ten Things of Thankful
In no particular order: 1. I am thankful that I wasn’t blown off London Bridge while trying to make my way to the university’s library, and then the British Library. And I’m thankful that the tourists trying to take selfies in the midst of an intense storm weren’t floating down the Thames. My Met Office…

24 January: Ten Things of Thankful
In no particular order: 2. Bless Luisa and Nico’s smiles when I showed them the pile of beach pebbles and seashells that (their parents) left behind. How can one not be thankful for a child’s smile. 3. Horoscopes that make me laugh: “Don’t try to convince others to agree with you. Be patient – everyone…
