Saturday 23rd was the date chosen for March's photo an hour. It was a spring cleaning type of day for us with a trip out in the afternoon to do some errands.
Here's what the day looked like...

Saturday 17th was the date chosen for February's photo an hour. We had a day of spring cleaning and tidying with a morning trip to the library and an unexpected afternoon visit from the local ice cream van!
Saturday 20th was the first Photo an Hour day of 2024! We'd promised Lily a day trip for her birthday (which was the next week) and she picked Barry Island as the destination. We didn't quite expect it to be so cold though! Although we still managed to see the funfair, have some ice cream, find some playgrounds and finish the day with fish & chips.
Saturday 16th December was the final photo an hour date of 2023!
We were away for the weekend at a local holiday park, at a cottage with a hot tub (my birthday present!). It was also Honiton Christmas Carnival in the evening so we headed down to Devon to watch that, picking up some chips and watching some Christmas lights on the way back.
Every month I find myself wondering, "how on earth has photo an hour come round again so quickly!?" I have no idea where the year has gone. So last Saturday, the 18th November ended up being the penultimate photo an hour day of 2023 (again, how?)
As is standard for November in Somerset, it was a carnival day - Glastonbury this time, the final big carnival of the year!
Saturday 21st was the date chosen for October's photo an hour. Another carnival day down here in the south west; we headed to Trowbridge in the evening for the Small Person to show off her Mary Anning performance.
Saturday 23rd was the date chosen for September's photo an hour. It was a carnival day here in Somerset (as it is here every Saturday in autumn!) and that date was Frome Carnival. This year the Small Person is taking part on her own at some of the carnivals, entering as a "juvenile masquerader". Her chosen theme (of course) had to be dinosaur-related and so she's depicting Mary Anning, the fossil lady from Lyme Regis. In the daytime, before the carnival we did some jobs and visited my Dad in his nursing home.
