After getting up this morning I decided enough was enough. It’s four and a half months ago tomorrow since I had my surgery and I’ve never felt better, the only problem is I now enjoy eating again and I’ve piled on sixteen pounds 😬
So after a hearty breakfast 🙄 ( I have to eat ) I set off to do a walk . We are very lucky where we live because nearby we have a river, a canal, a train station, the countryside and a small town with a large new Lidl supermarket. So basically we have everything on our doorstep.
I took some photographs with my phone to show you what is nearby.


The allotments, we live in the apartment block shown at the top right hand corner, I usually take my photographs from there!



Then I came to the river which runs behind our apartment block.






Once home I took a photograph from my window. Tomorrow weather permitting, or should that be body permitting I will take a walk up to the canal and take some more photographs from there. 😉
Now I’m ready for a nice cup of tea , 🤔 I wonder if there’s any cake left 🌝
Wonderful you are feeling bright and well enough for walking .. And a lovely day to do so.. And lovely to SEE you Elaine and the allotment plots and your apartment block.. Thank you for taking us along on your walk today ❤ Really enjoyed it xx ❤

Do they have any near you?

No. People here tend to have lots of land for growing but there are a few community gardens that inspire people to grow their own vegetables. Sadly, my garden is bijou.

I think people here don’t have much space around their houses to grow enough hence community/allotments came into being. They are council owned and tenants pay a small fee for the privilege of having their own little piece of land.

A return of your appetite is a good thing, weight gain be damned. Enjoy that cake! Lovely area you have nearby too with plenty of openness and nature, and I really like the river. Don’t hold your breath for tomorrow though as Tuesday is forecast to be thunder storms & torrential rain. Maybe that’s just my corner of the UK but you may want to take a brolly 😂
