My wife and I took a day off over the Jubilee weekend from our hectic working lives. We decided to trundle around the Kent countryside, winding our way through the quiet back lanes and enjoying the serenity of a landscape which never fails to delight, both in terms of wonderful rural scenery and the vernacular architecture. Even a short tour such as this rejuvinates the soul and refreshes the mind.
The rural shots are from around village of Frittenden and the buildings are in the village of Smarden, very much the quintissential English village:

Welcome to my miniscule part of the universe!On this blog you can catch up with what I've been upto in the garden, and pretty much anything else to do with gardens, gardening and plants. I'll also drop in some views on any number of other things, including travels and adventures.
