Thank you for the kind comments on the blog. I've now moved it to http://project365.thepotters.org
after some fighting with my DNS provider
As for the spider, someone said it was a "garden spider". Whether that is a breed of spider, or he was just meaning that I found it in the garden, I do not know. I guess I'm rather letting it slip that I'm not much of a naturalist here...
vegabond, I love your hot air balloons shot - the balloons are perfectly lined up!
Abacus, really sorry to hear that your card reader fried your memory card. That's a pretty horrifying thought, I hope it doesn't happen to you again. I take it that the reader is now in the bin!
Yesterday's shot was a phone camera shot of a thistle on the golf course. I've got a nice shot from today in the camera, but I may end up with something different. The sports centre that holds my daughter's ice rink is having an event to celebrate the Queen's Baton relay (that's the Commonwealth Games equivalent of the Olympic Baton relay). So I may end up with a picture from there instead.
