Sadly, I couldn't make the wedding, but I managed to catch up with Mr and Mrs R for a glass of fizz before they fly off to pastures new. Buon viaggio, щасливої подорожі, molto felicita e amore. xx

Not much slick shooting from me today. Just a quick stroll through one of our favourite haunts to see if there was anything new. BTW, Slick Shoota is a Norwegian musician into 'juke, footwork and bass music' and a lot…

Day trip to Carnuntum with R&M. The archaeological museum is quite amazing. It includes a recreated Roman palace, complete with hot and cold baths as well as functioning underfloor heating, but what is so remarkable is the way that it…

... and MisterMac and I got well and truly caught in the middle of it. Needless to say, we were not suitably equipped and had a shivery journey home.

The Spear of Destiny has, shall we say, an interesting history. Thankfully, neither MisterMac nor I had visions of world domination when we saw it. In fact, the only vision we had was of the tog skulking in the corner…

An odd expression and one not heard very often these days. Alas, I have no bonnet, but had I had one, I would have certainly thrown it over the windmill!

I last went to Melk in pre-camera days and don't remember much about it apart from the fabulous library. We decided to make a return visit with cameras to snap the opulence for posterity, but sadly, no photography was allowed.…

Am gradually filling in the backlog of the old blog - there hasn't been much time recently for sorting out pics, but I have taken at least one a day. Today's is an update on a piece of street art…

These Picasso style posters seem to be springing up everywhere - not sure if they're a type of urban art or advertising something. Either way, they're nice and colourful.

These book-swap cases are a fab idea, but MisterMac always comes back with more books than he takes.

They look so sweet and innocent, but when they decide to munch the laurel bushes, they have no respect for the wall. 900 acres of common land, but a tiny laurel bush seems to be more appealing.

Now you see it, now you don't. I'm sure when I left home this morning, this shop was full of sparkly dresses and now it's not!
