A very belated Happy New Year, let’s see what it brings, hopefully, more of the good, and less of the bad (obviously!)… Picture taken at Netley Beach recently, the closest beach to Winchester…

The youngest member of our family wanted to “write in the book” for the Queen before the long weekend – and light a candle (although I think that was more about the novelty of lighting it by himself more than anything else), so we went to the Cathedral after school on Friday to pay our […]

The only filter on this photograph is the natural light and the brand new baby leaves of the trees…. The bluebells were just beginning to turn to be honest, but it was sooo beautiful, if not incredibly muddy and pouring with rain. Worth it though, even if we did have to pour a lot of […]

Just a day late, but the snow kind of pushed all plans back to today. It made such a nice change of scenery (literally!) and was great for the youngest member of the family who spent well over three ours happily pottering about in it in the garden. The older two don’t seem that interested […]

A couple of pictures that illustrate English traditions to me in different ways… The first is of the recent bluebells up the road at Crab Wood – 200 acres of ancient English woodland. There are plenty of myths and legends about this place and it’s really special – as were the bluebells this year! Just […]

As the pandemic has receded enough to reveal a new kind of normal, life (for us at least) has returned to the hecticness of what it was before. Add to that the reinstatement of international business travel for Mr Bavarian Sojourn and it’s not surprising that I found myself wishing for a bit of peace […]

Thanks to my sister Victoria (owner of Cherry Vintage Home), I have been to a couple of Country Brocante events, more often than not in her end of the woods in Sussex where they originated. The stalls are typically piled high with all sorts of vintage treasures as well as local produce, flowers, […]

Well hi, it’s been a while… What a funny old time it’s been, and the world still seems a little mad for both pandemic (and now sadly other reasons) – part of the reason I haven’t been here much if I am honest, it just hasn’t felt right… After thinking long and hard, I find […]

A picture taken a couple of weeks ago now. It seemed to sum up the news that there is now a little more hope on the horizon. I feel that I have neglected this space unwittingly. When the whole pandemic situation started, I was determined that I would try and carry on posting regardless, ( […]
