Es ist mir schon in Rye aufgefallen: Es hat unheimlich viele Leute mit Hunden hier, meist kleine (Kläffer-)Hunde, aber auch grössere. Das ist tatsächlich manchmal etwas nervig. Oft, weil sie mit Hund und Leine den ganzen eh schon schmalen Gehweg versperren. Oft auch nur das dauernde Gekläffe, wenn ein Hund einen anderen sieht, was ja … ... mehr auf pipistrella.ch

A whole year has passed since I first met the “Lady on the lake” with her five beautiful babies (and of course her Hubby) on a patch of grass beside the lake. I missed the nesting and the tiny cignets, when I first found them, the […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
We’ve not quite got the Semi-retirement part of moving to Weymouth worked out yet. We’re both sort of working part time, I’m part time at my paid employment yes, but working hard at house making when I’m not in work, and Hubby’s catching extra shifts at his workplace to help […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com

Weymouth was buzzing today… No, the beach and prom were not covered in killer bees, but they were swarming with motorbikes and spectators. It was Motorcross Sunday, yet another event in Weymouth’s calendar, helping to make Weymouth an all year round visitor destination. […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Our award winning beach has taken a bit of a battering over the last few days. The usual well maintained sands are strewn with tangled bits of seaweed and the winds have whipped a fine dusting up onto the prom and blown it around into snowdrifts. […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com

Exciting times… Changes are afoot… The foundations are being laid… As the beach prepares for another season of happy holiday makers. More from before: Semi-retirement by the seaside in “Weymouth“... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Have you ever visited a beach and hired a deckchair? I’ve always said that one day I would have my own deckchair and live near enough to carry it to the beach with me. I am living near enough now, but haven’t got my own […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
The “Lady on the lake” has been missing on the last two mornings I’ve passed their spot, the reeds have grown pretty high, but I was certain I was still looking in the right spot so, once a mum, always a mum, I began to fret that something had happened […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Another view of Weymouth’s award winning beach, Ma Nature has been very kind with the sea and sand she’s given us, its beautiful, but to be fair a lot of work goes into keeping it that way. The “Beach gardener” was out and about again on […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Remember this picture of the “Marina sticks” when the tide was out ? Well today I passed the same sticks at a high tide. The tide was high enough to almost step into these little boats. […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Good morning, Good Friday… On Good Friday morning, before the holiday weekenders arrive, before the donkeys are up, before the deckchairs and beach towels are set out, the “Beach Gardener” works his magic on the “Sifted Sands” . More from before: […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
The winds have died down slightly but the tides are still quite high leaving behind them masses of treasure along the seaweed line on the beach. More from before: living into “Semi-retirement” and beyond… ... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Mama swan, also known as the “Lady on the Lake“, as well as Papa Swan and their five babies are a regular feature on the patch of grass, under the willow tree, next to the car park now. They all seemed to have moved to a safer nest for a […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com

Robin, over at “Breezes at Dawn” is hosting “Walktober” again, I seem to have missed last year’s walk, we hadn’t long moved house and I guess I was still busy homemaking. I’ve spent all summer building my garden and almost missed this year too, but I’m here, and I thought we’d […... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Summer will be officially here soon and many minds have turned towards their holidays. My thoughts turn to holidays future, and past, each time I walk into town past these sticks in the marina. They put me in mind of “Venice” where the whole city […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
The “Lady on the lake” has moved again from the “Empty nest“, probably taking her five cignets deeper into the safety of the nature reserve, but after watching closely over this pair of swans (first mentioned in “Who’s the Hubby“) by the restaurant boat, I was delighted to see three […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
Every now and again, Ma Nature decides to raise her voice a little, this was the case recently on our little island when we were visited by a weather system which became known as “The beast from the east”. To many other places around the […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com

You’d be forgiven for mistaking this picture for some sort of moonlanding, but it was actually taken just a few hours after the beach was “Buzzing” with motor bikes and spectators on a busy Motorcross Sunday. Weymouth takes it sands very seriously, after all, it’s […]... mehr auf hallysann.wordpress.com
