Following

Do you begin and end your day with the world framed by a window or windscreen? Maybe it’s your own or perhaps it is the fingerprint smeared one of the bus or train. Do you run? Or cycle? Do you stare ahead, focussed on the point of horizon, enjoying the sensation of the landmarks flying past you? Or do you walk? Head dead ahead. Music sounding. Telephone chattering. Daydreaming.

Have you walked or driven the same route for as long as you can remember? Have you one day, for whatever reason, looked up and seen something that surprised you? A building above a shop perhaps? A blue plaque? A piece of graffiti impossibly high up? A flag. This blog is about what you can see when you tilt your chin and see a different view of your everyday world.

Look up.

You might enjoy it.

You might see something good.

Cat in the hedge

The 'neighbours' who live above me have a cat who has recently had kittens. Much to my delight they have spent the last few weeks playing on the flat roof of our kitchen, where the upstairs living room opens out onto. They are super cute and particularly fun to watch as they are forever trying to get up onto things then down off of them but too tiny to do either properly. The mum cat just looks on lazily in some sort of amusement (well I like to think). The other day I was pinning up the washing and heard a scrabbling sound and noticed this little one checking out the hedge...
