Day Two of dogsitting Dolly. Here she is in the Parc de Vaugrenier, a forest of cork oak and pine trees right by her home in Biot, on the Cote d’Azure. One of the best things is getting to know the area through our walks together. Thanks Dolls!

The 29 stones of Fernworthy Stone Circle - also called Froggy Mead - form a slightly flattened circle (W-E) with the tallest stone being just above a metre (3 feet).The circle is situated on a plateau in a clearing in Forestry Commission forest, near Chagford, Dartmoor. Happy

Happy Caturday everyone. It’s cosy telly-watching time so snuggle up and stay warm together as the temperatures drop outside - in the northern hemisphere anyway. Have a lovely weekend, one and all, human and non human.

When the simple solution (eg cat flap but feet away) eludes you and you gun for the more complex option because it puts other people out and that at least forces them to pay attention to you. Have a wonderful Thursday folks.

Buddha’s teaching invites us to see things as they are, not as we wish them to be. It encourages us to sit quietly and investigate the reality of suffering, impermanence, and not-self, and to cultivate the wisdom to let go.

Night night everyone.

How delightfully quaint some of these old Devon village names are, their etymologies lost in the mists of time.

It can feel as if the stones cast a spell of perpetuation upon the landscape. Archetypes of transmission and reception echoed into a manifesting modernity. This is fanciful, but it's also one of the ways the Long Neolithic works – it infects our imaginations. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday
