That is quite stunning..to me they are three stunning people standing lke a tree. I am not very clever when it comes to interpretation thats what it seems to me....people at ease with nature...but I am sorry if I am not interpreting properly it but I am very moved by it. Thank you.Thanks @jjraak these are truly amazing I usually keep my eye on such photographs but missed these, appreciate you bringing them to my attention. I have attended a few talks by landscape photographers and the lengths and time they spend doing calculations of sun the right time of year and angle is inspirational, they deserve to capture such great images.
The loan tree. I did a watercolour of a very old tree on shugborough Estate which won a local competition. Here it be....

Thank you, you are very kind. I do so enjoy you and @gennepher posting your paintings but I dont feel its fair to expect you both to keep it up and I dont want eitner of you to feel pressure. I would must say it has made my start of year veey enjoyable.The meaning of art is in the eye of the beholder, there is no right or wrong.
Edit.. it is actually a very old tree 800 years and getting to the end of its life, the tops gone but it continues to put out shoots and sits proudly in a blue bell wood. Truly wonderful and in the words of poems by Thomas Hardy ancient people may entwine into the trees around them from within the soil they were laid.
hahaha..Like.
here's the new addition @SaskiaKC
a little bit different to that bike you posted, but the same spirit, i hope.
( little bumper spray to refresh the plastic, and screen off for a buffing..ooh err, missus)
EDIT: Sat with it's big sister..Oh and they both do 140+
(Bike in MPH, the scoot in MPG..)

@Debandez I have always said you are a Diabetic Dynamo, its quite amazing the workload you get through and with such enthusiasm. I have no doubtthat lots of folkin your cover area have learned and gained hugely from your efforts. I send a virtual medal and a big hug.
So while I was unpacking what I thought were essentials, Julie was busy elsewhereThere really were 200+ bottles of wine to move as well. This is not all the spirits or optics. Apparently looking for my beard trimmer can wait.
Wow, if you join us on our ZA road trip to @PenguinMum s I won't need to fill my water tanks with gin, can you get all of it in your vehicles, if not I can come via your abode and help out.So while I was unpacking what I thought were essentials, Julie was busy elsewhereThere really were 200+ bottles of wine to move as well.

I am liking this @Muddy CyclistOn my windy bike ride and fallen trees I truly expected the tall pine trees by a pond I pass to be layed flat, fortunately they still stood and the light behind them strong and so have done a watercolour sketch of them, may do a larger painting later in the year. Watercolour, between A4 and A5 size paper, brushes used shown below, time about 30 minutes.

Thanks for the kind offer. I suspect that in the event of a ZA we may well be cosy for a while here for at least 1 or 2 nights.Wow, if you join us on our ZA road trip to @PenguinMum s I won't need to fill my water tanks with gin, can you get all of it in your vehicles, if not I can come via your abode and help out.
Not seen that @jjraakVERY Nice...liking that one a lot..the light for the water..perfect.
i meant to mention this.
not surer if you might have seen it, given your and Genns eye for the visual.

i know it's camera work but i still think you might like it
did think the tree one looked like ti was an ENT, and the space shot was beautifully captured
but my fav was Hasfoss (pic 4) though if having one hanging it would the 1st one
My kind of tree @Muddy CyclistThanks @jjraak these are truly amazing I usually keep my eye on such photographs but missed these, appreciate you bringing them to my attention.

In my view @PenguinMum you can interpret paintings any way you like or see...That is quite stunning..to me they are three stunning people standing lke a tree. I am not very clever when it comes to interpretation thats what it seems to me....people at ease with nature...but I am sorry if I am not interpreting properly it but I am very moved by it. Thank you.
Hugs for you @SaskiaKCWow, @gennepher, the wind nearly blew me off course a little while ago while I was crossing the main road to the drugstore. I also nearly got blasted out of the crosswalk by a VERY IMPATIENT driver waiting to make a left turn out of the parking lot behind me. We all had the green light, but I had the WALK light as well, and these drivers KNOW they can't make a turn across a crosswalk as long as there's a pedestrian in it! The funnier thing was, the driver in front of the honker was sitting quietly and patiently in his car, and he probably jumped about as high as I did. I started laughing -- fortunately I had my back to the impatient one so couldn't be seen laughing at his rudeness. Of course, for all I know he had a good reason for being in a hurry. It's a short light.
Then, back home, sitting out on the patio for a little bit before coming back inside, I saw a beautiful Lab being walked along the sidewalk, @Krystyna23040 and @muddycyclist . He was a chocolate Lab.
I will keep it up @PenguinMumThank you, you are very kind. I do so enjoy you and @gennepher posting your paintings but I dont feel its fair to expect you both to keep it up and I dont want eitner of you to feel pressure. I would must say it has made my start of year veey enjoyable.
Precursor to replying to my DUK complaint via email..I went on their Facebook page and asked a question:
Question if I may. Ive started to follow your 7 day meal planner. I followed the breakfast suggestion of 2 slices of seeded brown bread with butter. Eaten at 9.30am with black tea.
19g carbs per slice = 38g 4g carbs = @ 1 teaspoon of sugar So @ 9.5 teaspoons of sugar
You also say you should eat 5 lots of fruit and veg a day spread out throughout the day.
So I had 100g banana at 12.15pm. 100g banana = @ 5 teaspoons of sugar
Using my libre sensor 24 hour constant glucose monitor I recorded the results. I ended it after the banana because looking at what you suggested for me for lunch I thought I couldn't risk my blood sugars going to dizzy heights.
I was struggling to decide between a tuna toastie, 2 slices of bread, stuffed pitta, beans on toast sardines on toast, all taken from your 7 day meal planner.
So my question is this. You recommend starchy carbs like bread, pasta, rice potatoes. All which will spike my blood glucose. As a result my hba1c will go up. Mysugr app confirms this.
So how can your recommendations be healthy for a type 2 diabetic?
Standard reply....but I followed it up with 2 more questions. I'm awaiting a reply.
