5 IN 5...ROUND THE POOL

 Joining in with SANDIE over at ITCHIFINGERS, with her new monthly photographic meme '5 IN 5'.......the idea being that on the 5th of the month (yes, I know I'm late...no surprise there!) you take a bunch of photographs in 5 minutes, then post your 5 favourites.

I remembered about it as I was about to cool my feet off in the pool, and decided to take my photographs from there.


said feet, sporting TEAL TOES FOR MARTI



abandoned flip-flops!


my little fishing net, which I use to scoop dead flies, wasps etc. from the pool


the pool itself (plus fabulous view!)


the temperature!

I've said it before and I'll say it again:I feel so blessed to have ended up in this beautiful part of the world..it's by no means perfect, but then where is?......

Hope the sun shines at least a little bit for you this weekend,

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx

  1. Thank you for taking part in my new photo challenge, Alison. I love the blue in your photos, especially your matching toe nails! The colour is so vibrant.
    I agree, you are blessed to live in such a beautiful place. And the temperature... phew! No wonder you want to be in your pool! I loved seeing your photos, especially as today has turned and it has been a bit dull and drizzly. xx

  5. Such a beautiful place to live and that temperature looks wonderful! Yes I think we are definitely moving into Autumn now and may be leaving the sun behind for a bit.

  9. A lovely set of photos and your pool looks so inviting! Hope you managed a dip this weekend! It has rained on and off here, but Penny and I did manage to go for a walk in Canterbury this afternoon to work out her route to uni and the sun shone!
