Little Blue Mouse: June 2013
http://littlebluemouse.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, 29 June 2013. Red and yellow and pink and blue. I've been to see how those tadpoles were getting on, and saw that the poppies in amongst the oil seed rape are looking better than ever. The tadpole numbers have diminished quite a lot, but that's not surprising because there's fish, ducks and the odd swan or two sharing the same water. I didn't see any little froglets out of the water yet, but these ones have only a stub of a tail left so I don't think it will be long. Saturday, 22 June 2013.

Little Blue Mouse: Going ape
http://littlebluemouse.blogspot.com/2014/09/going-ape.html
Sunday, 7 September 2014. At the beginning of the week I went to Go Ape at Buxton with my daughter. For anyone who hasn't heard of it, it's a tree top adventure where you cross from tree to tree by different methods, go down zip wires and swing into cargo nets. We've been to the one at Sherwood Forest before, so knew what to expect, although all the courses around the country are different. You're kitted out with a harness and have a full safety briefing before you're sent off on your own. 8 September 20...

Little Blue Mouse: October 2014 Photo Scavenger Hunt
http://littlebluemouse.blogspot.com/2014/11/october-2014-photo-scavenger-hunt.html
Sunday, 2 November 2014. October 2014 Photo Scavenger Hunt. I can't believe the last time I posted was for last month's scavenger hunt! I'm sorry about that, but here are my interpretations for this month. Only One Orange Smartie. I'll let you into a secret. When my kids were little I would see their Grandad most weeks and he would give me a tube of Smarties for each of them. After a few years my daughter remarked that there were orange Smarties pictured on the tube but there were never any in them.

Tuesday, 30 September 2014. September 2014 Photo Scavenger Hunt. Thanks to Greenthumb for organising the photo scavenger hunt again this month. You can see more entries over at Made With Love. Sculptured Stump at Buxton. Sheep encountered while out walking. I hadn't got a photo for this, and then I saw this tin 'hat' on my husband's scrap pile. I thought there was a large snail in the corner of the car wing mirror and was going to pull it off when I noticed it had legs! Through my car window. Being a veg...

Friday, 20 June 2014. Epworth Music Day Saturday 21st June. I know most of my readers live far away from here, but I just thought I would big up a local event which is happening this Saturday (and well worth travelling to! In the small market town of Epworth, North Lincolnshire there will be about 40 different groups performing in various outdoor venues all over the town from 10 in the morning through to 5 ish , with an indoor evening concert, plus day long folk sessions in two of the pubs. Hink I've cyc...

Little Blue Mouse: September 2013

Tuesday, 24 September 2013. North Yorkshire Moors and Wales. I've been having trouble with my computer lately, so this is a bit of a catch up post. If you want to see what the inside of a driver's cab is like, this is me in one (the driver is a friend of my husband). One of the stations is at Goathland where Heartbeat was filmed. Some of the shops still have their Aidensfield signs and there are old vehicles from the series. Luckily my daughter's got a torch on her phone so it wasn't too scary. Pontcysyl...

Little Blue Mouse: November 2013
http://littlebluemouse.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 20 November 2013. It's not in my nature to be up with the lark, I'm much more of a night owl; but inspired by Bunny Mummy. S post with lovely photos of the morning light, I thought I would check it out for myself. With sunshine forecast for yesterday it was perfect for me to see what I've been missing. I suppose being out and about at half seven may be the norm for a lot of people but it took a bit of effort on my part! I must say I wasn't disappointed. There's still a surprising amount of tre...

Little Blue Mouse: October 2013
http://littlebluemouse.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 22 October 2013. A bit of a tweak here and there. I bought a great dress from a charity shop the other week which was perfect in colour and style but the neck stuck out a bit at the front. I easily remedied it by putting a couple of simple tucks in the front. The wallflowers are not worth photographing because they're only slips of things at the moment. Saturday, 5 October 2013. September 2013 Photo Scavenger Hunt. This is our little woodland which my son and his friends have made into a bike tr...

Little Blue Mouse: December 2013
http://littlebluemouse.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 25 December 2013. I hope you all have a very happy Christmas! Thursday, 5 December 2013. I came upon this sign recently which had me puzzling. I think it goes without saying that plants are slow moving (a few inches a year is slow in anyone's book) but I wonder what there is about this particular plant to be wary of? When I saw this sign from the other end of a shop last summer I wondered what they were selling, and why weren't they a bit more discreet! Tuesday, 3 December 2013. Welcome to my ...
