Nettle tea - a refreshing brew. Gathered a few nettle tops while the kettle was simmering, looked for the freshest ones, a little past their best for eating but fine for a cuppa. Boiled water poured over half a dozen nettle tops and leave for ten minutes to brew, and enjoy 😊

Time for a brew - kettle simmering, birds singing, leaves dancing in the gentle breeze, life in the woods is grounding, nature she envelopes you and settles your troubled mind.

Campfire Conversation - there is something quite special about chatting by a campfire, and being just a one-to-one makes it all the more so. With no agenda, just talking about anything that comes to mind, life experiences, adventures had, challenges, life in the woods, dreams for the future and more. Yesterdays was really nice and I look forward to more campfire conversations.

An evening paddle on the river Thames, there's something quite special about getting in a canoe and paddling off on a river, exploring places and seeing things from different perspectives. And there are so many things to see when we take the time, three amazing bridges over the river, the lovely arches of a road bridge built in the 17 hundreds, the huge brick built railway by Brunel in the 19th century and a lovely foot bridge with its white painted iron work. An old boat house, still occupied with an old saloon launch hidden underneath. And just the beauty of reflections across the water. Anyway getting out on the river was good, provided much needed space to recharge.

Time in the woods - it's nice to be able to share the place I love to be, a few families joined me over the last week, some with older children others have youngsters, and some with special needs, but all connecting with nature in different ways, be that lighting a fire, building a shelter, baking bread or whittling wood, and learning about the environment. A good week 💚

The best times await in the woods, early morning dampness from overnight rain, birds singing, and gentle crackle of the campfire, flames caressing the kettle black, warmth radiating from glowing embers, life goes on in the woods. Wishing all a peaceful day 💚

Sizzling mackerel over the campfire - lunch shared is a good lunch 💚 There is something quite special about cooking over a campfire, perhaps it's a primal thing, but food just tastes better when cooked over a naked flame, with a little wood smoke, and yes it was rather tasty.

Lunchtime special - yes that amazing chicken of the woods, just simple cooking over campfire, delivered something that was well, amazingly tasty 😋 Dipped in batter (egg, olive oil, seasoning and a little bread flour), and fried in more olive oil until golden 😊

(Not quite vegan chicken - oops sorry, could have so easily been, but I used an egg, I'll remember next time hopefully)

NB. Pictures of this fab fungus in previous post!

Being open to the unexpected - wow, nature she sure dished up a special treat today; chicken of the woods, first of the year seen a couple of weeks ago growing out from an old woodpecker nest, and now on on another cherry tree.

(No filters - this amazing fungus really was this vibrant in colour helped only by the beautiful sunshine)
