Fantastic. Much of the pink blossom has disappeared from around where I live but I could submit some pictures taken at the beginning of the month. They could dedicate a special page just to Fetchie selfies or blossom with a Fetch buff strategically placed

The blossom has just suddenly blossomed here in the last few days. I was out running yesterday and I thought, "I must pop back out later today with my 'phone ... oh."

My plans have been stymied, unfortunately. I had a route all worked out which included an interesting wall which was part of an old village lock-up located in the garden of a house in which Kenneth Grahame once lived. A two-for-one from the list. I was hoping there might be a blossoming tree there too. It also included a pub featured in Three Men in a Boat. However, this was going to be a commute and I'm now WFH. Coupled with that my niggly legs have told me not to run for a little while, so no late impromptu treasure hunt either!
Still enjoying all the blogs, though!

That's a shame Goofee - it sounded like a good one too.

I posted photos for around half the categories earlier this month, but got distracted and the end of the month is approaching, so here are a few more.
There are a lot of interesting looking old walls in York, so I decided to go with new and odd instead.
One shortish segment of York’s surrounding wall repeated over and over again on hoarding surrounding a building site. It messes with the head a little when you walk past.
Then the other day I had to go into town to pick up the part of a prescription which was out of stock when I went to get it filled. I got to the shop and the doorman said that the prescription counter was being sanitised, and I should come back in twenty minutes. Twenty minutes spent wandering around the centre of York, with an amazing lack of people and lots of time to stand and stare meant I noticed something on one building I’d never spotted before, despite passing it hundreds (probably) of times. It’s an old house, now a shop:
and it has a date on the front: 1424.
So why, when you zoom in on the carved beam, is there an image of a T. Rex?*
* Okay, probably a sea monster of some sort, but doesn’t it look like a T. Rex?
I hope the image numbers are correct, or this post will make no sense at all. 🤞
