My Favourite Autumn Leaves The Song Of the Season

Autumn.

Autumn is I believe the song of the season , its beauty is unrivalled , the shop stopping colour that changes as Autumn creeps on . The winds that blow sometimes gently and other times with such a swirl the myriad of the colourful leaves that are thrown up before our eyes.


The leaves for me have to be the best bit of Autumn your beauty is there for me and carries me through to winter.






To hold a leaf up to the light and look through it is like natures kaleidoscope, leaves are natures finest and they bring untold treasures for us. There is no better way than to take an autumn walk to blow the cobwebs away , to coin a phrase from a well known song " Forever Autumn"




I love to see the butterfly dance of the leaves as they fall, leaves bring out the inner child in us, this is a feeling I never want to lose. To kick the leaves , to crinkle, crunch and lead upon them is like jumping into a fire but a fire of blazing Autumn colour.

The Autumn boughs of the trees are my triumphant arch as I walk upon my beloved lanes , I love to be the only one about but I will share my world with you if only for a while for I love the stillness of the world an the time in which it allows me to think.

When I have peace in my world then all other worries are melted away.











I walk on a carpet of Autumn leaves and my heart sings.

Leaves are in my Autumn treasure bag are they in yours ?




Even when the frost grips the Autumn leaves hold their beauty.









I have Autumn leaves in my minds eye do you ?

By The River Endless Wander

By the river I see the water ebb and flow, endless adventure just waiting for me to go.

My time just to be , that 5 minutes of sanctity.


Down the lane , palpitating at what will be  natures surprise oh those impending skies.

The Review Of The Dyson DC41 MK2

Dyson I've been with you from the beginning I've see how you've grown , your innovation knows no limits. You keep evolving bringing new and exciting products into our lives , making the ordinary and mundane chores of housework an exciting adventure that I am very happy to take with you.




I am confidant in the purchases I have made with Dyson , in fact recently we brought the cordless Dc 59 ourselves as I didn't want to be having to pay for a car valet each month when I could get Mr T to do it instead.




We are a family of 3 with 2 cats one of which is extremely fluffy ( the cat that is)  my son is constantly playing sports including football and the ever so messy and muddy rugby. It is important for us to keep on top of the mess which comes with having a chaotic household , which sometimes feels never ending!




The new feature is fantastic manoeuvrability  and as such the manoeuvrability the Dyson Dc41 MK2 is phenomenal I feel like a formula one driving especially when I corner.  The Dyson ball technology is the key to this manoeuvrability     Dyson  I have to add has the power to shock you with the dirt that you seen being picked up and you might feel disgusted  by take heart this is dirt and it that will no longer be hanging around!


Emptying your Dyson is a doodle you simply unclip the bin from the body stroll to your outside bin , press a button and the contents of the bin are emptied into your outside bin. ( You can also empty the contents of your Dyson into your compost bin ) There is the wand at the back of the machine too, this is perfect to reach up the stairs without having to pick the machine up, and for those pesky cobwebs.




No more faffing around adjusting your vacuum from one floor surface to another with the danger being if your don't then suction is lost. This is not the case with the Dyson DC41 MK2 which has an active base plate and no suction is lost !


While other vacuum cleaners still rely on bags, losing suction over time, Dyson engineers have developed Radial Root Cyclone technology – to pick up large debris as well as microscopic particles like pollen and mould. The mesh shroud helps separate large debris, with inner cyclones generating powerful centrifugal forces. Its worth explain the technology behind it, so people understand why getting rid of your bag is better. But it’s not about all bagless machines, Dyson were the first to engineer cyclone technology and they have been improving it for 21 years. They now extract particles as small as 0.5 microns – 1/5,000th of a pin head!


The Dyson  DC41 MK 2 comes with a few attachments one of which is the tangle free turbine tool with counter rating heads with brushes and will remove pet hair etc from your upholstery etc.






Research, design and development is at the core of Dyson. One third of people at Dyson are engineers and scientists. Their expertise in fluid, mechanical, electrical, EMC, thermal, chemical, acoustic and software engineering allows them to design new technologies from the bladeless Dyson Air Multiplier™ fan to the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer as well as challenge and improve existing ones. Dyson has over 1,900 patents and patent applications worldwide for over 300 different inventions (July 2011). Dyson’s RDD investment has quadrupled over the last 5 years with plans to double engineers to continue to invent new machines. Dyson has 1,700 engineers and scientists worldwide. An additional 400 engineers will join during 2014.


The cost of a Dyson Dc41 MK 2 is £430 .

Thank you to Dyson for inviting me up to the press headquarters and showing me all their innovative new technologies , such a shame that couldn't smuggle the robot that is coming out next year. I would love a robot Dyson and I would name him Cyril. Also thank you for to Dyson for sending me the new DC41 MK2 to vacuum my home with myself and my cats very much appreciate it.

Kindness and A Thomas Sabo Bracelet

Yesterday was #nationalkindess day and I simply couldn't do without the kindness of my friends and fir this I'm truly grateful from kind words on Twitter to direct messages on the same platform. Whatever the social media medium I know my friends they are that have my back. Karma has a way of working out in people's lives I'm sure of it, when I was told that a Quartz would protect and keep me safe.

My beautiful friend Sian To is the friend who told me of this and you know what earlier this this week , I won a bracelet from Judith Hart Jewellers in Derby , the very same jewellers I had my eternity ring from. The bracelet is a Thomas Sabo bracelet of which I had a choice of the very aptly named karma beads.





Friendship doesn't have to be complicated friendship it is just being, I love my friends and I love my bracelet.

Foggy Days Photography A Wander

I could almost hear the rattle of past village life one before the motI love all the seasons and when the other day I had to go out in the fog , I didn't sigh I was elated.

The beauty of my village is shown to me all the more.



Of course I was going to visit the church graveyard! 



The sun was trying to pierce through the fog as I walked past the working farm.



Far from feeling apocalyptic it felt homely
