Framlingham Canola Fields 9 May 2015

I am supposed to get 2 hours off every day - it doesn't always happen for various reasons but when I do, my best thing is to go for a walk. This region farms mainly wheat and canola, so quite familiar. The canola seems to grow about a foot a week.



It's the long slow twilight of summer in England. This area is about a 5 minute walk from my client. Actually a bicycle would be ideal on these roads. Not many inclines. Or a horse! Even in May I still need a beanie - it gets quite chilly, and sometimes wet.




This road ends in a farm with a small manor house with some very sculptural trees. Gardeners seem to cut back a lot of the trees at the end of winter, I don't recall this really happening in SA? Not to this extent. Ian, do you do this in your gardens? (Yes, Green Cat Ian!)


Then back home along another country road. It's so pretty and a walk is the best remedy for stress. This job is considerably more stressful than I had expected. But it's early days.



Just look at this little house. Couldn't resist.

  1. The country scenery reminds me so much of Sussex! You should see more and more flowers along the wayside in the next month or so. Those gentle long evenings in summer are simply wonderful (the winter opposite, not so much!).
    Sorry to hear you're finding the job stressful - hope you find your feet soon (or move on to something better). xx
