Bateman House
We’ve all seen and read Jungle Book and loved it. We’ve had our imaginations taken to new heights, with Mowgli, Baloo the bear and Shere Khan the tiger. It was during the making of Jungle Book, that Walt Disney passed away. It was the last film he produced and the first film to be released […]

Hibiscus – Macro Monday
Well, last week was just one of those weeks. It started by taking in next door’s parcel. No problems taking it in, but when it came to handing it over that was another story. I got locked in the downstairs cloakroom. You see we have one of those spring-loaded closers for the door, cos my […]
