Well I have to presume its this Jim, St Peter and St Paul right in the heart of Paggers,
It surely is Neil :D

Not much to see of it from the High Street but from around the back and from the River Lovat it becomes very photogenic :)

I did visit a church today on my bike ride but I'm saving it for another non-riding day...

I did however find this :)

We've all just passed the Equinox, so Spring has finally arrived for you guys, while for us daylight saving is about to end, and we're on the downward slide to darkness and cold :( .

So no spring blossom here, but it is a good time of year for fungi. Also a good time of year for mice - not exactly a plague where I live, but a lot more than usual, so I try to be prepared for an unexpected mouse attack. BTW, this toadstool (definitely not edible) is about 11" across!

It doesn't get cold down there does it? I like the toadstool, pity its not edible. Temperature here is just coming out of single figures, about 10C today, feels quite warm compared what it was, we have had a very cold winter. We have a nice view though. 8-)

A beautiful view indeed!

I live on the top of the Great Dividing Range, at about 1000m above sea level. I would say it never stays below 0C during even the worst winter's day, but on a good frosty night it can reach -10C.

Here's a nice frosty snap from July 2017 - taken at about 7:30am, the day would already have been warming up.

Gosh! Size of that :shock:

Back when we lived in Darwin we looked forward to the next few months for a bit of relief from the heat and humidity... Not that I recall it lasting long!

Never mind the size of that, how big is the toad? :-D

As there's no POTD so far...

I'm on a rest day from running and cycling today so I went for a nice stroll around the town...
