The fifth of November 2019

Remember remember the fifth of November. Did you know that no one in England actually calls it Guy Fawkes Day? But they do celebrate with bonfires and fireworks and today seems to unofficially begins the seasonal consumption of mulled wine which is basically spicy hot wine. At any rate, it is good to always question and challenge the status quo.

Hot chocolate is a better alternative to mulled wine, generally speaking.

goats

Thank you to my lovely friend Helen for suggesting a visit to Wimpole Estate to photograph some goats. Wimpole is home to a herd of Bagot goats, a breed known for its distinctive black and white colour. The origin of the breed is not known, but they have resided in England since at least the 1300s. They are intrepid conservationists and often employed to graze upon historical sites to maintain surrounding landscapes.
