If by any remote chance you're looking for something to do this weekend, can I recommend #HoneyFest at the #BargeInn, #Honeystreet, nr #Pewsey, #Wiltshire, #UK ? It's a great pub, with camping fields right by the #KennetAndAvon #Canal, and just over the ridge from the #megalithic wonderland of #Avebury. I'm playing Friday night, and can definitely recommend my friends the excellent #MrT&TheMinions and #DevilsDoorbell.

My first pass on Avebury Stone Circle. In my view a more impressive monument than #Stonehenge. An artist friend thought the fleeting clouds contrasted with the permanence of the stones. I’ll take that! #Lino #Linocut #Prehistory #Prehistoric #Neolithic #Henge #Monolith #Wiltshire #Shadow #Stone

I completed my 16 mile walk across the #Ridgeway in 6 hours today. Feeling a bit tired (and sore in places) but given how beautiful the day has been, I wouldn't have it any other way.
Time well spent. #Walking #Wiltshire

A garden has to stimulate the senses not only when everything is flowering. The “riot border” is already unruly and beautiful. It will be very colourful very soon.
Some plants I deliberately put there, others are self seeded.
Incorporating wildflowers (weeds) in borders is ecologically important but it’s not new or revolutionary.

A bit hard to spot, look at the centre of the photograph: A pheasant investigates my greenhouse. He has been almost permanently living in the garden for several weeks.
I suppose he calls himself wildlife!

The last film I saw here was, I think, the first release of The Jungle Book.
it's been a bingo hall for the last50 years and I'm quite excited to go and watch another movie there

I hear that this year’s latest, newest thing at Chelsea Flower Show is the use of wildflowers, a.k.a. weeds.
Not exactly new. I have been doing it for years because of the huge environmental benefits.
See photo description for more about the photo.

You don't need me to tell you which standing stones these are. They could hardly be more famous and popular, but if you can catch them at a quiet time, on a quiet day, they are always impressive and moving.
When I first saw them, as a child, you could still walk right up to them and clamber around.

Raining on someone’s parade today …
Here is something sunnier from a few days ago: Bluebells (Scilla nutans) in the grass meadow in the garden.

My forest of tomato seedlings. They are big enough to be planted out but cannot go outside yet because of the risk of late frosts. Made a note to sow them later next year.

Our new guests. Here twice today. Although, it looks as if they had just moved in. I am convinced that we are listed in one of the guide books that ducks use.

Yes ... The Rt Hon Anthony Swindon, MP. Has a much more modern and democratic ring to it than Lord Robert Salisbury.

Internal temperature of my compost heap this morning, after cold nights and much rain, just over 45°C. Happy with this at this stage.
On the surface grass cuttings from a week ago, cuttings from the garden, deadheads and kitchen 'waste', such as vegetable cuttings, peanut shells, egg shells and coffee grounds.

Have you visited 765 year-old Salisbury Cathedral? Seat of the Anglican bishops of Salisbury, it’s not only historic and lovely but also has several distinctions. It’s spire (1320) is the highest church spire in England, it boasts the largest cloister and the largest cathedral close in Britain at 80 acres (32 ha), it contains a clock which is among the oldest working examples in the world, and it has one of the four surviving original copies of Magna Carta.

Imagine walking through all the accredited Walkers are Welcome Towns in the South West via Slow Ways? It's possible and I like the look of the trek across the Mendips from Cheddar to Keynsham.
