Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Friday, February 23, 2007. It's been a while. Just in case anyone is still checking this blog, I haven't totally disappeared. I've been doing some serious jobhunting, and I'm still not sure whether this is going to be CovBlog for much longer.

CovBlog: January 2007

Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Wednesday, January 31, 2007. At Ryton, the first signs of spring are emerging: snowdrops, hellebores, and crocuses. Let's hope that they do not regret emerging an estimated two weeks earlier than usual: I could still find myself eating my words about the mildness of the winter, it is not done yet. Posted by It's The Gardening Lady @ 9:27 PM. Wednesday, January 10, 2007. But this is the result. Landscape, with p...

Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Saturday, December 16, 2006. Right next to Coventry Railway Station are these two healthy globes of mistletoe. I've heard it's been a very good year for mistletoe, as with all fruits, but I've never seen it in a city before. Sunset behind big wheel. But creates some interesting skylines. Posted by It's The Gardening Lady @ 8:53 PM. Monday, December 04, 2006. This is the same part of the river at more normal lev...

Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Friday, October 27, 2006. Seeing this much art is hard work. Fortunately the café was surprisingly cheap, and free from people with carryingly posh voices, unlike some galleries I could mentionmind you, I wouldn’t have been able to understand them anyway. Other landmark paintings included cubist Picassos and Braques, demonstrating how they exchanged ideas in a way which might be seen to be unacceptable copying ...

Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Tuesday, August 29, 2006. One of the perks of working at Ryton is The Staff Table. This is a table (yes.) where all sorts of interesting vegetables which are perhaps slightly too organic for sale, are left for staff to take, gratis. The other day I picked up this, isn't it the cutest courgette? Posted by It's The Gardening Lady @ 11:24 PM. Friday, August 25, 2006. Being a stunningly beautiful plant. It's also k...

Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Saturday, July 29, 2006. One Saturday in Coventry. Wall painting on Hay Lane;. Window of the disused County Hall (although 'the city's most significant 18th century building');. The Devil under St. Michael's foot (Jacob Epstein);. The Whittle Arches;. Young man sleeping next to waterfall, Priory Gardens (despite a gaggles of goths splashing in the water about 12 feet away);. Wednesday, July 26, 2006. Lunch then...

Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Thursday, November 23, 2006. Saw this strange juxtaposition on the way to work this morning. Furthest away are the two chimneys of the soon to be closed Ryton Plant. In between these is the 14th century tower of St. Leonards, Ryton-on-Dunsmore. Perfectly framed by trees.

CovBlog: April 2007

http://coventryblog.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html

Words and pictures which were mainly about living in Coventry. but now I'm back in Nottingham. Sunday, April 15, 2007. Another lovely day, and compulsory cycling! St Mary Magdalen, Wyken, is an unusual dedication, and - appropriately - next to it is the Church of the Risen Christ. Wyken was a remote village till Coventry expanded in the second half of the 20th century, so this simple medieval church remained largely unaltered. When the estates grew around it, the new church was built next door. Fittingly...
