Islander, happily getting by with my clan on a little ole lump of mud in the North Sea. Don’t tend to follow anyone posting infestations of political tweets.

Up with the lark, the fox, the cuckoo, the ducks, the deer, the seabirds, the songbirds, and the churchyard rooks. Cycled through chilly banks of mist as the sun began to rouse itself for another day. Took a few photos along the way. 1/7

Pictures of a church - an occasional series.
St Giles, Great Maplestead, Essex.
On a recent late Summer church crawl, I rolled up here on my bike only to find the building locked. Disappointed, I took to exploring the exterior and found it to be a beautiful spot.

Ironically, despite the main church being locked there was access for parishioners and visitors through the main porch to a room with a WC. A few churches I've visited have free tea and coffee for visitors to help themselves to, which I always think is a lovely touch

Bembridge Windmill. Said to have ground the flour for the sailors who fought at Trafalgar, it was sketched by Turner and is the only surviving windmill on the Isle of Wight.
