My trip to Liverpool to see the Giants

Giants Liverpool.
Hello, peeps today's blog is all about my encounter with the Giants in Liverpool.
 In October 2018 my mum Melissa, our dog Fudge and I travelled from Cornwall to Liverpool, to visit my Grandma and to see the see the spectacular Giants parade.
We had to wait for an hour and a half for them to walk past us but boy was it worth it! 
As we had taken Fudge the dog with us he was getting pretty tired and cold we had to make a makeshift baby carrier from a scarf.  He liked it.
Oxlo the dog
 We didn't get many pictures but here are some of the best:
The little girl giant
I know there called Giants but you don't realize how big they really are until you see them in real life. They are at least two stories high!


 There was even a band riding along in a van!

Fudge seemed to like them too...

A lucky shot of Jean-Luc Courcolt the man who invented the Giants Liverpool.
It all seemed to go past in a blink of an eye.....
As we walked back to our car we saw some cool graffiti so I will show you that:

Well, that's it for now come back tomorrow for a new blog post...

Will it snow again this year in Cornwall?

Today I have been pondering whether it will snow again here in Cornwall UK, like it did last March... So I thought I would share with you some photos of when 'The Beast From The East' came to Cornwall.... View to our garden by the sea. Fudge eating snow. I remember when it first started to snow I couldn't believe it, as it has only snowed three times before in the more than eight years that I have lived in Cornwall!  But last years was the biggest lot of snow by far!   No snow today but lots of wind. Back tomorrow with our results of our RSPB Big Garden Bird Wach. Over and out x

Watercolour paintings of the birds we saw in the RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch 2019

Hello peeps, today my mum Melissa and I have been doing lots to help keep the wild birds happy. First, we made some more lard cakes (see 25/1/19's post for the recipe!) and hung them out where the birds can reach. After that, we settled down by my desk and the bay window (which I Keep my many houseplants on) to do the RSPB Big Garden Bird Wach. We only saw two Blue Tits. But they came back twice! Here is a photo of one of  Blue Tits that we spotted.↑ I also did a couple of watercolor paintings whilst we bird watched.   Maybe the reason we didn't get many feathered visitors was that it has been VERY windy here in Cornwall, with wind speeds up to 70 miles per hour!    Me in my "Bird Wachi'n Hat" Well, that's it for today. Good luck if you are participating in The Big Garden Bird Wach. And if not, ahh well... See you tomorrow, Love Gaia Cacti xxx
