Shall we start with this chap?
I thought you'd like to see somewhere different for a change so I headed South of the river with the sun shining. As I approached Junction 5 of the M25 a Red Kite flew over.....
I was a bit early so read my book before popping into Emmetts Garden and of course the clouds came over and there was rain.....
On a good day I could have happily sat in the sun and read but alas that will be for another day.
There are a lot of nice properties nearby but as I had never been to Down House......
Down House was the home of Charles Darwin. It's not a great house but the home of a wealthy middle class Victorian it's a very liveable house.... English Heritage have used it to show Darwin's life and work quite well done. Alas no indoor photography.
It chucked it down when I arrived and then the sun came out weird eh!
lovely to see the fruit trees coming into blossom....

Beautiful photos as always. I particularly like your black cat photo, you could flog that as an e-card.
Beautiful photos Pete - lovely to see the bluebells starting to appear.
Very jealous of your visit to Down House!!! - I would so love to go there. Nice to see it through your photos though :)
Down House looks interesting.. and good pics of it and gardens. Think I must add this to my 'to visit' list; and also Emmetts...looks like you had more sun than I did...
Wonderful pictures. The flowers and flowering shrubs and trees are fantastic. Things are just starting to poke up through the ground here.
