Nature at work! : My Actifit Report Card: May 18 2026
This is a strange sight! This tree has grown over the top step of this stone stairway in a local park. I can't help wondering how this happened. Perhaps more to the point, why was it not removed as soon

Fun on the lake :My Actifit Report Card: May 17 2026
I enjoyed another walk with my wife around Ifield Mill Pond. We were looking for the swans but couldn't see them today. This is understandable considering all the nooks and hideaways that there are here.

It is not quite summer yet and it still feels like winter on some days recently. But the wild flowers tell a different story, looking really lush and full of colour. The daisies are now in full bloom on

Six bundles of joy! : My Actifit Report Card: May 11 2026
The resident swans at the Ifield Mill Pond have produced and hatched six beautiful cygnets. We had a great view of them from the suspended walkway. They were a joy to stand there and watch for a while
