Flamborough Head |

I moved from the South East to East Yorkshire in 2009. Before I came I knew nothing about this area. If you don't either, and you like wildlife, days out and the seaside, keep reading. I will also use this blog to show the evolution of my 14' x 30' garden from lawn and concrete to woodland area, wildlife pond, bee border, veg bed, container patio, and Moroccan courtyard. Too big a plan for too small a space? Watch this space. (See April 2011 for start point and plans.)

The Garden - Update
Things have moved on slightly since the last pic on the 'Starting Point' blog post from April. I've marked out the shape of the new bit of lawn I want to put in. Not sure if I want to use that log roll as edging, I think it'll sit too high up and create too much of a shadow at the edge of the lawn. On the other hand, I like the look of the log edge around the woodland garden, so I'll have to come up with a plan to make sure the lawn doesn't get shaded out at the edges. I've bought some more plants......

Walking in East Yorkshire - Skidby Windmill
(These walk instructions were written in April. We've since done the walk again in September, so I've added more photos and updated the description slightly.)
The other half is currently on a 16-mile charity walk. I've had one update so far saying he got to a mile. That was about an hour ago. Hopefully he's not keeled over. If you are wondering why I, the keener walker out of the two of us, am not doing the walk, it's a question of car space. The walk isn't a circular one, it's a straight 16-mile of old railway track from Hornsea to Hull. Other half is doing it on behalf of his work charity with a few others from there. They've got a work car to drop them off at Hornsea and to collect them at the other end. So the car space was at a premium.

While I'm awaiting for the next update from him, this is another one of the walks that we did to prepare him for today's walk - Skidby Mill and Risby circular walk -
