My other blog: Becky in Portugal

The martins, swallows and swifts are settled in, so it is time for us to move on.

But before we go can I identifying the hirundines?!

And this one likes cuddles! #walkingcompanion #lifeinthecountry #countrywalk #madeafriend #cows #somersetday #somerset #cowsofinstagram

The little one got so close she banged her nose on my camera, not sure which of us was more shocked! #countrywalk #somersetday #cows #fieldtrip #countrylife

The first of four encounters with a herd of cows today. These were the easiest to deal with; the next field chased, the third lot moo'd and the fourth here had two who demanded cuddles! #somersetday #cattle #cows #countrywalk #lifeinthecountry #may #springtime

I've been spoilt rotten with Portuguese goodies 😍 #birthday #surprises #happydays

My voluntary life in pictures

One of our new student volunteers - Charlotte - has been out and about exploring #Winchester as part of our #localhistory19 project. ⠀ ⠀ One of the first places Charlotte visited was Winchester City Mill, a working watermill in the heart of Winchester and one of the oldest in the country. A mill has existed on this site since the Saxon times and at one point this site was even owned by Henry VIII following the dissolution of the monasteries. Situated on the River Itchen, when you visit this intriguing mill you will still be able to see the traditional grinding of the corn to make flour.⠀ ⠀ She has been taking some great photographs for us. Here's one of my favourites from her City Mill collection, we think @winchestercitymillnt might like it too!⠀ ⠀ #nationaltrust #citymill #heritage #hampshire #volunteering

The last few weeks we've been stuck behind desks registering 100+ events for this year's festival. So it's a huge bonus when we find an excuse to get out into our lovely city.⠀ ⠀ Do you recognise where we were yesterday afternoon?⠀ ⠀ #citylife #gardens #explore #Winchester #heritage

Heritage Open Days is not just about buildings or guided tours, we also bring local history alive.⠀ ⠀ So we are delighted that Hyde 900 are running again their tile making workshops this September. These workshops are great fun, whatever your age or ability. Your chance to make a bit of history!⠀ ⠀ #tiles #history #hyde900 #winchester #hampshire

Yay @blueappletheatre are performing again for #HeritageOpenDays. Such an honour to have this award winning group of actors perform during the festival.⠀ ⠀ More details will be available soon on our website, but for now here's a hint of what is to come⠀ ⠀ #winchester #mothers #liveperformance #blueapple
