Food. Friends. Sunshine
~I’ve been so excited for today’s Sunday roast! The lovely @copastraditionalturkeys sent me some samples to try out and they’ve tasted amazing!! The chicken first of all came in a lovely box I have to say- then it was so easy to prep and cook too! We had a choice of gravy or bread sauce; the gravy was super delicious and the portion sizes were fab. The flavouring of the chicken was lovely and juicy and definitely left me wanting more!! It has 100% made it a Sunday roast that I won’t forget, the best company alongside even greater food which is always a bonus!!⭐️ I hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend and enjoy the sunshine
And, for your next Sunday roast, I’d definitely recommend trying out @copastraditionalturkeys products for ease, comfort and overall delicious food!

An evenin’ on the river There are so many great post work mini-adventures to explore now the days are long. This little escape started with a short 25 min train ride from Paddington to Maidenhead, followed by a walk up the Thames pathway. The first bit of the walk through Maidenhead isn’t that pleasant but a little patience is well rewarded, the stretch of River improves dramatically as you approach Cookham. It’s home to some great greenery (and Clivden House) and there are many little spots for a picnic and a dip. Why not give it a go the on the next sunny evening?! #impulseadventure #vespucciadventures #wildswimming #mentalhealthawareness #getoutside #outdoorswimmingsociety #cookham #thames #hiking #walking #walkingisgoodforyou #walkingisgoodforthesoul #clivdenhouse #ukhiking #maidenhead #miniadventure #exploremoreoutdoors #exploreuk
Sometimes beauty and adventure is just around the corner... I can't say Bucks and Berks will ever beat the exhilaration of going abroad, but there are some pretty spectacular spots if you know where to find them .

Where are your favourite spots close to home?

Stanley Spencer studied at the @sladeschool from 1908 to 1912, under the watchful and notoriously critical eye of Henry Tonks.
-
However Spencer’s attachment to his home village of Cookham meant that the young artist would return, every evening, from London to rural Berkshire, earning him the nickname “Cookham” from his Slade contemporaries.
-
This early drawing of a Cookham interior, is typical of Spencer’s graphic style from around 1907-1910 and can be compared to other drawings from the same period, including “Roy” and “The Sack of Potatoes” (@spencercookham) and “The New Shawl” (@tate).
-
It is probably not the sort of Spencer drawing most people immediately think of, but is extremely beautiful in its simplicity of subject matter and technically accomplished for a young artist, who can’t have been any older than 16 or 17 when he drew it.
