It would seem the rest of the world has woken up and things are getting busier. At least we have the unseasonably milder and dry weather to help us out when not stuck in the office.
I have done my best (as I always do), to try to have a brief walk at lunch and this weekend Richard and I saved a day to get out and about.
Having managed to put all our appointments and chores into Saturday we ensured today has been left for us to both relax and have a quiet day. Although not as warm as it has been it was sunny so we got in the car and took the short drive over to Audley End.
We spent the best part of the morning exploring the grounds and enjoying the fact that there were only a handful of people there. It felt in some parts that we had the whole estate to ourselves and we had a great opportunity to explore.
Of course following our walk around the extensive grounds we stopped for a hot beverage and lunch before heading back home.
I have promised myself that I will keep up my 366 project this year (previous years haven’t been that successful) and have so far (I think), managed to upload an interesting photo each day this year. I know it’s only early days but I am already quite proud of my collection of snaps…
My photo’s already include ex prime ministers, the ever-changing London sky line, protest lines of demonstrators and dramatic neo-classical follies. Go on have a look!
I’ve decided to have another stab at the Royal Academies Summer Exhibition and have paid for my application. I am taking a gamble this year as I am not sure I will have time to create anything new therefore I will probably submit an existing work… I must be mad!
