Togethernesses (2) - together

So, following on from the last piece about quiet sickly aloneness, here's a load of photos of happy times over the last few months doing things with friends and neighbours at the community here. All fairly random, and in no particular order (my head's still not working very well!) but thought I'd at least splash these out there..

Clare and Margot's birthday



 

 Painting the kitchen

 

 

Easter / Spring Equinox and Charlotte's amazing shrine

 

Not sure how shaving Cadno's chops fitted into the ceremony, but seemed a good idea at the time

 

Walk to 'The Strangles' 

 

 

 

 

 

 Lizzie & Andy's housewarming - which coincided with Earth Hour, hence the glowsticks..

 

 

The Port William at Trebarwith Strand

 

Wee Gillen's silly faces after his first pint

 

Ollie & co building his den

 

 

 

 

Felix the Landy in action

 

 



 



New way into the wood, which avoids the old mudslide

 

 

Good impression

 



 Workgang smashing stones

 

Game from a beat and pork from the farm, lovingly used

 

 

Extending the chickens' home

 

 

 

 

 

Margot's housewarming and the spitty forehead game

 

Can't remember the occasion, but will never forget The Artful Ollie

 

Thought I'd end with some non-human togethernesses, both at Trebarwith 

 

Love is in the air..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sunset at Crackington

Haven't got a lot to say about this one! Marie's mum, Jane, was here. After an excellent day of Boscastle, Rocky Valley, planting, weeding, lying in hammock, making a bow from some coppiced hazel, all the while basking in our long lost friend the sun, we thought we'd pop down to our local Haven and watch that invigorating old star go down.

So here are a few wee pics, which of course don't do any justice to the sound, smell, touch or spirit of the beach, cliffs and ocean... or to the taste of Cornish Rattler in the Coombe Barton (that window always reminds me of Captain Jack's captain's window), or to our table outside it. Just love it all.

Probably best to click on the first one, and then scroll through.
