1/ More on the story about #BorisJohnson having his application to install a swimming pool turned down by the #localcouncil in #south #oxfordshire . He has in the past complained bitterly in public about #planning #legislation protecting "The Great Crested Newt" in particular but does not seem to have used the rather large parliamentary majority he enjoyed in recent years to do anything about it. He would have been unlikely to have had much leverage over the #localcouncil .

Day 2 (pt1) of our #Roadtrek #Motorhome #RV #RoadTrip down to Brighton
Now parked at a #BritStop on a pick your own fruit farm in #Oxfordshire
And we are free (literally) to walk the dogs all round the farm.
I think we will be as sad to leave here as we were to leave last night’s stopover.

Day 2 (pt1) of our #Roadtrek #Motorhome #RV #RoadTrip down to Brighton
Misty start, then we spotted a rabbit 3 fields away and got excited
Then we had breakfast and a snooze in the warming sunshine
Then we headed a massive 120 miles south, via Little Itchington and it’s beautiful church for lunch, to #Oxfordshire

A terrific place to #volunteer,
And many options too,
Saw amongst the Wittenham Woods,
Or teach the kids what's new.
There are jobs inside or outside,
and lots of jobs to choose,
so go along and meet someone,
You'll come back feeling new.

A great afternoon out at #Goring, by the #RiverThames in the bit of #Oxfordshire that thinks it's #Berkshire (or is it the other way around?). This is the Common Clubtail #dragonfly which is one of the few species in the UK that are confined to rivers, not ponds or ditches. They're really hard to find so this was a real bonus.

I went on a mini-hike today with an old friend from uni, along part of the #Ridgeway, walking North from Swyncombe Church. It was glorious! The church was lovely, too, but I didn’t snap any photos inside. #hiking #walking #TheRidgeway #oxfordshire #england #countryside #nature

This seems like a suitable route for a lazy Sunday bike ride.

Join me for an afternoon's #watercolour #painting #workshop in west #Oxfordshire!
I have two dates scheduled: Sat 24 June & Sat 22 July, when we will be painting starlings.
If you can’t draw or haven’t picked up a paintbrush since you were a child, don’t worry! We start with a demo, & I’ll guide you thru the process.
Lose yourself in the #mindfulness of making art!

My new painting "The #GreenMan Brings Spring to Chapel #Meadow" shows the ancient woodland spirit joyously heralding the season of hope and life.
The #arrivalofspring is a kind of #magic, isn't it?
The meadow is now threatened with annihilation from a housing development. So I thought I'd better paint the meadow before it's lost forever.
I hope you feel the meadow's magic too.

Burford (1998), Oxfordshire
A very nice town - maybe a few too many antique shops, but they've got to be somewhere.
