I am not aware that we have any mosquitoes in the area, or even in the region, but I could be wrong on that one. I think the worst flying insect is the midge in woodland areas.

Just a few shots from yesterday - it's too hot to go out today except if absolutely necessary (36°C).

1 Maize plant which has sprung up growing through a vine
2 Building where the vine is growing -the oldest part of the farm dating back to 1760
3 The farrier has been again -a bucket full of good luck!
4 Yucky spider - the bodies are about an inch across
5 Yucky spider with legs opened out

And so our Danish (for those of you who hadn't clocked it ) jaunt is done & with a desperate few last snaps our journey of discovery is over & we're now back in the heart of the Reich once more.

Fyn, Horne, Round Church - South Jutland, Sonderborg, Yachties Harbour - Sonderborg, a couple of traditionally designed streets.

Re: Today in pictures

Today in Pictures. A walk through Clayton Fields revealed a fence right across the middle, United Utilities are going to dig through the middle, they have already started at Warwick Avenue and are heading for the fields.

1. Knapweed.
2. Meadowsweet, a by product of the field being fenced off, no horses trampling and eating stuff.
3. Great Burnet.
4. Betony.
5. Looking down the field, almost at the waters edge.
6. Is it something I said.
7. I don't think they are speaking.
8. And now a fag.
9. I am not as fast as you uphill.
10. Now that must smart, Devils Bit Scabious.

Re: Today in pictures

Today, some pics from my garden, which hasn't been touched for two years but still has some colour among the weeds.

1 My new garden lounger, guarded by the fleece of Heribert the Herdwick sheep which Richard bought me last week (I'm still in shock, so rarely does he buy me presents)
2 View from the lounger
3 Elecampane (Inula helenium) with tansy behind
4 Striped grass and flag iris in the pond (but no water!)
5 More of the same
6 Lychnis coronaria
7 Red valerian going to seed
8 Lavender behind a shrub whose name I can never remember
9 Fig tree and rhubarb
10 Probably the sum total of our plum crop for this year

More tomorrow
