Some views and wild flowers

Another lovely blog Hywel. You certainly live in a lovely part of the country with those views right on your doorstep..I hope that you appreciate them, but mostly if you see that sort of thing every day you don´t notice them after a while and take them for granted.

a great blog Hywel, love the views and wild flowers. :-)

I can understand you making your little sitting place so that you can see these beautiful views,Hywel. Really enjoyed going on that little walk with you. Thanks for sharing this. Its obvious that you love living here and it must be a joy to wake up to these views every day, rain or no rain!

Super duper blog Hywel and I really enjoyed that walk, think I would have sat on that bench for a while too! There seemed to be plenty of wildflowers for my liking Hywel, quiet lovely. Thank you.

Great blog thanks for sharing. One of the pleasures of a country walk is the wild flowers.

Thank you all :o) It's nice to know you all like the views.

As you say Rogi, they are just part of the background for me, and I often don't notice them when I'm getting on with everyday life ... but sometimes I stop and have a look lol.

Thanks Surrylad :o)

Rose you are right ... the hills are often shrouded in mist, but they're just as beautiful then, as on a sunny day ...

Grandmage I'm pleased there were enough wild flowers for you. There's usually more than that but it is late in the season I suppose.
You couldn't have sat on that bench that day ... it was soaking wet lol :o) but it is nice to sit there when it's dry.

Thank you Denise. I couldn't go on a walk without noticing them ...

Lovely blog Hywel. Some stunning views there!

A great blog Hywel, beautiful scenery and I love the wildflower pictures, what a perfect place to rest your weary bones, I could sit there all day;0

Made me homesick for England! You managed to spot some lovely wildflowers.

really enjoyed this very native flowers and the beautiful place :-)))

Enjoyed every bit of your walk Hywel, and when your feeling tired its nice that someone has done the walking for you and come up with some great photos to share, thank you.

Thank you all. Nice to be able to share some of the views with you :o)

I enjoy your walks on the wild side,Hywel :o)..and very impressed with your knowledge and names of all those lovely flowers..I only know a few of them..thanks for sharing:o)

Thanks Sandra ... I am a bit wild lol :D

Lol,Hywel..I thought so :o)

:D !

i love wild flowers hywel, i live in very woodland area and there are loads of wild flowers, everytime i read one of ur blogs i find answers to many questions i have like that big pink wild flower, i now know its called rosebay willow herb, there r loads where i live and most people would consider them weeds but i think there lovely and they grow abundantly its like a sea of pink. you live in a beautiful part of the country.

I loved the wildflowers,especially the latin names.I have them all growing in my garden, now that i've moved into my late mam's house.

Loved the walk with you Hywel, I hope your Arthritis soon eased, loads of Rosebay Willowherb on the mountain opposite and on windy days like this the seeds blow over here in great fluffy clouds!! I usually find some trying to take a hold on this side of the mountain i.e my garden!!

Thank you all for reading my blog, and your comments.

Stunning scenery ... how wonderful to live amongst such beautiful hillsides :o)

Thank you TT ... :o)

Lovely blog and lovely views! Sorry about your arthritis - me too, so I know how it feels!

Thank you :o)

Lovely views, Hywel, big, big skies for one thing... Luckily, although I'm in London, I live on the third floor, with very large windows, so I get big sky too... and green fields. But not a patch on what you see on your walks, beautiful.

Thanks. You do see big skies when you're on top of one of the hills.

Hills, ooh, making me legs ache just thinking about it, lol!

And mine lol :D

Lovely, Hywel - thank you!

:o)

How did I miss this? I love your wildflower blogs, Hywel. The ragwort seedheads are rather pretty and I really like the little umbellifer - wonder which one it is? A copper bracelet is supposed to be good for arthritis, but I believe you can take copper in tablet form too - hope you're not suffering too much.

Thank you :o)
I wear a copper bracelet sometimes, and I take glucosamide tablets and painkillers. Sometimes it's not so bad, and other times it is ... I just take it as it comes lol

At the risk of being completely boring, copper may help with rheumatoid arthritis, but only if you're short of copper in the first place. Most of us aren't because we've got copper water supply pipes, but its possible.
I belong to Arthritis UK and they produced a report in the form of a booklet a couple of years ago which listed various 'alternative' treatments like glucosamine, and whether they were effective for osteo arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or fibromyalgia. Makes interesting reading. It's a free publication.

My mother used to get those magazines. There was a lot of information in them.

lovely wild flowers even though not as many as you though would be Hywel, but even without flowers that view is fantastic and open space :o))

Thanks Sandra :o)

Lovely blog

Thanks. Glad you liked it :o)

Have returned from holiday and it's raining cats and dogs... Should be catching up on washing/ironing, while OH is watching the Grand Prix on TV... But instead I thought I'd catch up on GoY Blogs...!! Have really enjoyed your walk Hywel... Hope you returned home to a good old cup of tea!

I'm playing catch up too Hywel ... I do admire the wild flowers you have photos of ... so many more than we seem to see in this part of the South ... thanks for sharing ... :o)

Thank you both. It's a job to keep up with GoY sometimes, so don't worry if you miss anything :o)
