I did not have to look far this morning to find blue - in this case the cloudless blue sky over our back garden which signals an oncoming heatwave. i.ibb.co/PD46w7K/Blue-sky.jpgDennis

Great fun for youngsters of any age, just sitting at opposite ends of the see-saw, rocking the time away. i.ibb.co/c8J4tbp/S.jpgBrenda

My "C" is for Cornish Pasty. We made these today, experimenting with the pastry and the filling - absolutely delicious and better than any shop-bought version. They were first made for the Cornish tin miners who worked underground the whole day. The wives would bake the pasties with a thick crust around one side, so that the miners could hold the pasty with unwashed hands, eat the main part and discard the contaminated crust. A very practical and delicious idea. If anybody is interested, the link below will show you how to make them. They are worth the effort! www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzNugUSsLLIi.ibb.co/VBzj7ZJ/C-P.jpgDennis

The twelve tumbling telephone boxes of Kingston, south west London. i.ibb.co/j6qqLWQ/K-1.jpgThe artwork is entitled "Out of Order" and features twelve genuinely decommissioned telephone boxes, symbolising the disappearance of these once familiar icons of a less technical age. i.ibb.co/K58MvK4/K-2.jpgDennis

This is "Archie", the Art Deco Archer which decorates East Finchley Underground station in north London. He has been there since 1940, when the station opened. He is a symbol of the speed with which the new Northern Line trains sped southwards into central London and beyond. The missing arrow represents any one of the Underground trains rolling out of East Finchley station i.ibb.co/LY69hcz/A-1.jpgi.ibb.co/6PYzk71/A-2.jpgMatthew

An interesting embellishment to the rather mundane exterior of our local supermarket, this representation of lavender commemorates past times when lavender fields were common in this now suburban area of Surrey. i.ibb.co/j44MTJ8/LAV.jpgUntil I got out the camera this morning, I had never noticed the beautiful metallic blue of the lavender "flowers". Photography makes one take a really good look at things... i.ibb.co/DtVJfZF/LA-CU.jpgBrenda

During our walk today in the Hertfordshire countryside, the views across the vale of St Albans gave us two horizons, the first being the line of treetops, while the second and farthest horizon was punctuated by the distinctive tower of Napsbury Hospital and to its left St Albans Cathedral. i.ibb.co/stVqkTp/H2.jpgBrenda

An opportunity to look upwards as we visited the "Superbloom" display of wild flowers grown from over two million seeds scattered in the moat of The Tower of London. This section was entitled "The Pollinators", featuring metallic butterflies, dragonflies, bees, etc. fluttering above us. Beautiful! i.ibb.co/3C5Grgs/1.jpgi.ibb.co/c1YnfsT/2.jpgBrenda
