Happy St. Piran's Day

In Britain there are 4 well-known Patron Saints. However having lived in the county of Cornwall (the most S.W. in England), I have to celebrate St. Piran ... the patron saint of Cornwall.

Cornwall is also a Duchy (Prince Charles and Camilla and their Duke & Duchess) ... while those who live there like to think of it as a separate county. However if you look ata map, there are 2 rivers separating Cornwall to the rest of England, with only a very short distance that is actually land.

Friday Photos 1 - Exeter City Wall

Wow, photobucket actually uploaded my photos .... so why they fell out with me a couple of weeks ago, I don't know.  Jiffy and I went on the bus into the city again yeasterday.  We were heading in a different direction, so although we again saw the wall, it is in a different area (In fact we ended up walking along the top of it!)

Photo Friday 2 - Exeter Quay

So, having wandered along on, and by, the wall, we ended up at Exeter Quay.

30 Day Challenge Meme

I don't have time to start this today, but will do this off and on over the next few days/weeks.  I snagged it Tumblr, via PinInterest.  I don't do Tumblr, but do occaisionally scan through Pin.



I do hope others snag and use, as LJ has been so much quieter recently.

Yay

I'm up to date with old comments ... Yay!!!!

Sorry for the delays in replying.
