HAPPY NEW WEEK!
I hope everyone has a safe, happy week.
Glad you enjoyed your walk, Rusty. I love to see egrets. It's been a bit of this & a bit of that day. In between, I watched some of the coverage of Her Majestys journey back to London and the visit to N. Ireland by our new King. Plenty of solemnity and spectacle. The Scots have done her proud.
(I also thought that the service at St. Giles was outstanding, such beautiful music and singing. Very moving that Princess Anne has been with her mother every step of the way) I've had a record: Yesterday, in one day, I had a phone call supposedly from BT (we are not with them) saying my WiFi was faulty --- then I got a text saying that I had a parcel waiting to be delivered which would cost £2.45 & would I like to pay it online? -- Then I had another text saying I had, apparently been in contact with someone with covid and I could swiftly buy a test kit from them..... Just when I thought I'd had enough scams, I received a postcard apparently from the Post Office saying they were holding a parcel for me which had not been paid for in postage- which was £22.50!!

Hallo all: I too watched the progress of the Queen's journey to London throughout the day. I saw that Mr. Putin won't be invited to the funeral (shocker!) but we're wondering about which Presidents apart from Biden might get the nod, specifically the Orange Menace. Surely they couldn't....wouldn't.....
Lindybird: A scam a minute - we are in the middle of 'your Amazon account has been frozen due to...." scams.
Rusty: Do like the sound of your outings.
Heather: Nice that your stepdaughter managed the trip to the viewing. Wonder when the Coronation will be.
I keep thinking things should be slowing down..... weather has finally improved following passage of hot and sticky tropical storm; almost back to normal. :-)
Take care everyone.
Dragon beacon built for the diamond jubilee of the Queen. It was where we had our picnic. You can just see the estuary in the background.
Beautiful sundial memorial for the miners who lost their lives at Bettisfield Colliery. This was very near to the dragon beacon.
Cocklers returning from a morning’s work as the tide rises. This is Greenfield Dock and you can see Hilbre Island in the distance looking out to the Irish Sea. This is the Dee Estuary.
