(Wordy) Wordless Wednesday.

I have always wanted a Bleeding Heart plant and last year when getting summer bedding I saw one. It only had two flower stems and I assumed there would be more, but when they had flowered the plant died. I was disappointed but put the pot in the greenhouse so it wouldn't crack through the winter. About three weeks ago I saw shoots so got rid of all the weeds that had enjoyed the winter in the greenhouse. I now have this and am very happy!

Wordless Wednesday - Snowdonia, Wales.

Don't click on the photos to enlarge, I had the camera on the wrong setting! 


 





The name The Ugly House is thought to be a corruption of the name of the local river, Lugwy. It is in Capel Curig which has the dubious honour of being the wettest place in the UK with an average annual rainfall of 2612.18mm which is slightly under 103 inches.

Wordless Wednesday

Wordless Wednesday.
Mainland,Orkney Islands, Scotland. Mainland is the name given to the largest island.




Maeshowe is a Neolithic chambered cairn and passage grave situated on Mainland Orkney, Scotland. It was probably built around 2800 BC. In the archaeology of Scotland, it gives its name to the Maeshowe type of chambered cairn, which is limited to Orkney.


Ring of Brodgar.



Graffiti is obviously not a new phenomenon! 

The Ring of Brodgar is a Neolithic henge and stone circle about 6 miles north-east of Stromness on Mainland, the largest island in Orkney, Scotland. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the Heart of Neolithic Orkney.
