I’m joining in with Sunday Sevens devised by Natalie at Threads & Bobbins. Simply seven ( or more photos) from my week.
Last wknd we ended up going to see a talk by The Greatest Living Explorer ‘ Sir Ranulph Fiennes ‘ in Kendal. We were offered the tickets when Wils sister in law couldn’t go. Thanks Carol for thinking of us!
We have seen Sir Ranulph before. The fetes he has achieved in exploration are Epic. Plus he is really funny with a very dry sense of humour. Definitely an interesting evening.
And I liked the mushroom prints in Fell Bar in the town.
Last Sunday we went a walk up Pendle Hill which is our local place for windswept walks. Hugo enjoys his ears flapping in the breeze. I kept mine covered under a woolly hat!
Yesterday was Wils 50th Birthday. We went out with friends in Clitheroe and there are more mini celebrations planned throughout the year.
The pets have got Wil a glider plane flying lesson for his birthday. They have a bit of an evil streek!
I won a book in a Facebook page Like & Share competition. Love the cover illustration. Has anyone read The Deathless Girls?
Thanks for dropping by. ❤️

I love the mushroom print and the book cover but my favourite has got to be windswept Hugo 🙂
Yes he loves it when the wind blows round his ears. 🙂
Saw an interview with Sir Ranulph Fiennes on TV once. He said he wouldn’t have Yorkshiremen on his exhibitions because they were miserable. As a loyal Lancastrian I’ll have to second that 🙂
Haha, that does sound like him!
That should be expeditions NOT exhibitions.
Happy Birthday Will, how clever to have a year long celebration. The book looks lovely, not heard of it so look forward to your review. The srooms are lovely.
Yeh it’s nice to just keep on with the celebrations on a big birthday! I’m looking forward to reading the book. X
Tapas look yummy and happy birthday, Will!
Thank you! The tapas was soo good. X
I’ve seen Sir Ranulph’s wife on the telly – very long suffering 🙂 Although I suspect she’s very proud of him and he probably gets under her feet when he’s home.
Belated Happy Birthday to Wil. Good to know I’m not the only one who coerces their pets into buying me presents.
Haha, yeh, they seemed up for it though. Of course I had to lend them the money. 😉
Lend? I’ll break this to you very gently…
I’m not sure you’re getting it back.
😅
Love Hugo’s 90 degree angle ear 😂
The South Easter is blowing really hard, at gale force, as is normal for summer in Cape Town, but don’t believe I’ve ever seen a dog with windswept ears before!
He loves feeling the wind blow round his ears. 🙂
Happy birthday Wil. Well done in winning the book, looks interesting x
I’m looking forward to starting it! X
Oh Pendle Hill, another one of our favourite places too, I bet Hugo loved it. xx
He did. He loves to run free. 🙂
Happy (belated) birthday to Wil! I wonder where the pets get that evil streak from?
Haha, I wonder! X
Sounds like a great week. A belated Happy Birthday. I haven’t been up Pendle Hill for years but it was windy when I was last up there!
It usually is pretty breezy! X
