Hello
I’ve been reading my Medieval Flower Book by Celia Fisher which discusses how flower illustration was used in medieval herbals and manuscripts, and gives masses of interesting information about the uses – and abuses of flowers – in those days. It’s an informative history of flowers as they are portrayed in medieval art and beautifully illustrated too!

Hello – from not so sunny Porthleven where the Food Festival is in full swing!
Staying around Porthleven today, I wanted to see how the bluebell woods in Penrose were coming on so we did a quick walk through the estate before heading back to the Festival.

Lovely day today…..lovely walk as well. Another one from the iwalkCornwall website (www.iwalkCornwall.co.uk ).
