The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

Photo Hunt - Walking
he theme for this week's Photo Hunt is walking. As readers will realise walking is something that I have not been able to do much of recently. My cast came off two weeks ago but even now I am not exactly mobile. Still, last wekk I did get out into teh garden on my crutches and I did work out how to take some shots while propping myself up. I have posted other examples of all of these flowers in teh last week (except the abutilon). Still I hope you enjoy what I photographed on what was a short walk in the garden

Photo Hunt - Time
The subject for this week's Photo Hunt is time. Not being particularly happy with any of my photos of time pieces and still not well enough to head out on a hunt this week I decided to stretch the theme and choose the time when our flagship plant comes into bloom. May is the time that our species tree paeony (Paeonia lutea var. ludlowii) puts up its beautiful yellow flowers. They don't last for long sadly. For the rest of the summer the paeony is a gloriously large foliage plant
