After Storm Doris damaged some of our neighbours fence panels they  removed almost all their fence panels and replaced them with something more robust. The new fencing has improved the look of our garden and has advanced our garden project

There is however one small unsightly panel left in the corner. This part of our garden I plan to be a small seating area, under the Hawthorn Tree above. So now I need to think of the best way to hide this part of their garden fence…

The fence before Storm Doris at the time our Garden Project was beginning to take shape.

I couldn’t resist one last photo of this evening’s meal; Smoked Salmon, Prawn & Dill Risotto.

I know, I know I have posted too many food photos this week. But it is a week that despite Mr C having some long days commuting away from his office; We, I, He were able to experiment with some new recipes

Synopsis (from book cover):

The story of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas is very difficult to describe.  Usually we give some clues about the book on the jacket, but in this case we think that would spoil the reading of the book.  We think it is important that you start to read without knowing what it is about.

If you do start to read this book, you will go on a journey with a nine-year-old boy called Bruno. (Though this isn’t a book for nine-year-olds.) And sooner or later you will arrive with Bruno at a fence.

Fences like this exist all over the world. We hope you never have to encounter such a fence.

Review:

Most people will already know about the book or the film but this book is best read without any prior knowledge of the content.  The story is told through the eyes of the main character, Bruno a child aged nine.  The innocence logical thoughts of a child stand out in comparison to the behaviours of adults.

A book that leaves you thinking and wondering why…
