Carefully peeling
Try to keep the skin intact

Call of the Mountains
The weather is fine,
Even for this time of year.
May I go walking?
Too much to be done.
So stop procrastinating,
And on with my work.
This was Pen y Fan and Corn Du on 3rd November, 2012. So far, this year, there has been no sign of any snow, but the mountains still look beautiful.
Job Hunting
Looking for a job.
People say I’m getting old.
What are my chances?
It’s a sad situation that too many people, today, are left with no real opportunities simply because of their age. Yet older employees don’t just bring skills; they can also bring stability. Older employees often have life experience that helps them to calm stressful situations. So why are so many employers reluctant to take them on?
Isn’t it time to redress the balance?
Autumn Morning
Chill in morning air,
Darker skies now filled with clouds,
Hiding mountain tops.
This is a photo of Hay Bluff in Herefordshire. We had planned to walk it, but, as you can see, it would not have been wise. Safety comes first when hill walking.
Hibernation
Gardens full of leaves.
Hedgehog yawns and goes to sleep
Until springtime calls.
