It's freezing this morning. Our central heating went off sometime yesterday and didn't come back on until Paul did some kind of magic to get it to work this morning. It's a funny thing though because I tried 5 minutes earlier and I couldn't get the darned thing to work at all!

It's -3c at the moment outside and feels somewhere near that indoors too! I'm noticing though that there's sunshine and blue skies and I'm wondering if the children will want to go out exploring once it gets warmer, there is after all a 6c high expected today!!

I love nothing more than a big walk around some of the fantastic scenery we live near, I did try to find some photos which I took down near the Ouseburn Valley but I must have mislaid them in my flickr account.

I did find though some old photos from last year that I wanted to revisit.

This one is just about to be published and very proud I am about that!
This one is Bamburgh Castle up in Northumberland, I would like to shoot a wedding there.

Ooh I found one, this one is from the Ouseburn Valley.


It's great to revisit past memories.

An Afternoon in Rothbury

So here we were thinking about what to do this afternoon:-

Well miss Abigail was by the looks of it.

Hmm Rothbury she thought....

and off we went!

The weather was beautiful, springlike and warm

Rothbury for anyone who doesn't know is nestled in the hills of Northumberland and it's one of my favorite villages to visit.

It's just so picturesque.

This is the first time I've caught Paul in the act of taking photos with his new cameraphone.

Abigail sprinting towards me because as per usual I've been lagging behind with that darn camera of mine!!

No matter how many people I pose, it's the family who never behave themselves!

Looby taken against a blue sky as she climbed on the climbing frame.

Iain who of course usually escapes the camera, not today though, mwahahahaha!

No one can resist a man in a hat!! He's just found out that his first full booked week of work this year has been postponed last minute (deep, unending joy ;) )

Time to go home....
