Since spring has finally sprung up here in the mountains, I shot these the other day. The first shot is my two grandchildren enjoying the great outdoors, George with his iPad and Tina with her iPod touch. (They were up for a ‘sleepover’ in the village. The general view shows all the space I have – a little more behind me, but mostly taken up by a double gate. The close-up shows a bit more detail. The copper thingy is an old fashioned <s>Turkish</s> Cyprus coffee maker. It’s a boiler thingy for hot water and the opening in the front is a heated sand-bed. You run hot water into the cups, spoon in the coffee then cook it in the sand till it boils – takes longer than gas, but produces the best coffee. I’ll take some shots when the roses bloom 🙂



That’s my idea of a garden – lots of pots of colour and no grass to mow. Boring stuff grass!
