My visit to Chichester

Good day to all who browse this blog. I have just been down to Chichester for a week. My brother Anthony had an operation and I went and looked after him, sad to say it meant that I had to leave Glyn, not good.
While I was down there I managed to catch up with a few old friends, Brenda, Lin, Linda. It was very good catching up with them all had some good natters.
Tony is now on the road to recovery so have come home to look after the old man once again.
The weather was kind to me while I was away which made it all the better. Must admit it is lovely to be home.
I am looking forward to going on holiday in August with the children and grandchildren.

Peace perfect Peace!

My peaceful place.

You know every now and again you find a place that is so peaceful you have a job to go past it! Well this is my place. I leave for work 10 or 15 minutes early sometimes just so that I can stop here. It is on a B road between Usk and Chepstow. You get all of 1 car every 5 minutes or so along the road (except in the rush hours when you perhaps get double that number).
There always seems to be a plethora of birds singing all the year round and just sitting listening to them is such a joy.

Wild flowers such as Primroses, Cowslips, Violets & Bluebells are all there in abundance.
Behind where my bike is parked there
is a path that leads to a stream with a bridge over it and there are logs that have been made into seats the other side, you can't even hear the traffic from there, what there is of it!!
I always call here if I come home from work this way as it really is my chill out place. It is a forestry commission picnic site and therefore has a name which I forget (senior moment, but will write it down next time I am there).
It is a place that I just feel at peace with God and the world and so close to nature. I also find it is easy to wonder at God's creativity where there are so many of His wonderful creations in one small area.
