More lions and murals.

I had to walk into town today so a few more lions and murals.


These are on the playhouse.





There were 2 in a council building opening late for training.











It seems some ducklings fledged at Netteswell pond.

Of a lion and murals

I noticed that one of the lions was outside Harlow Museum and as that is easily walkable I went for a wander.

I noticed on a recent walk that the underpasses were decorated with murals. I saw some today.







The lion.


I had a wander around the museum gardens.






Lots of painted ladies

Of cars, Lions and Painted Ladies

In May a stone chipped the windscreen then we had the battery. Well the next day I popped over to my friends Jan and Tony. I had been there 19 minutes when there was a knock on the door to report a motorbike had hit my car!!  There wasn't much damage, broken brakelight a scratch on the tyre some bodywork damage but the car was driveable... Or so I thought but a broken brakelight means the car is not roadworthy and the insurance sent the RAC to take it to the repairer. J&Ts daughter kindly picked me up Thursday and took me home. I took her to my cafe for lunch.

I mention that as the next day these had appeared.


Apparently they are all over Harlow, Epping and Loughton. These are the ones near home. 










Ever since Saturday the buddleia bushes are alive with painted ladies.









Oh the car was picked up yesterday!
