Had my usual walk to Scrabo Tower this morning with my brother Philip and friend Stephen. Not many signs of Spring approaching as yet but I did spot some nice catkins on a willow.
Bumped into a fellow dog walker who suggested I look up a Youtube video of a drone flight over Scrabo Tower. I think he suggested it as he’s in it 🙂 Anyway I thought some of you might be interested in this birds eye view of a small part of our walk.
It’s not looking good for me making it over to the Ryan Neil workshops at Willowbog Bonsai in April. I’m truly gutted about it.
I can’t see Ryan making it to the UK too often and this is a missed opportunity. Having done a workshop back in 2013 I know just what I’m going to be missing.
Here’s a taster from 2013, the videos from the demo day.
Thank you Peter Warren for nominating me for the ALS Ice bucket challenge. I have made my own donation to the Motor Neurone Disease Association here in the UK. I had no shortage of volunteers to do the icing and it was ICE water!!
Keeping this in the International Bonsai Community I now nominate Valentine Brose in Germany, Owen Reich in USA, and closer to home, Will Baddeley and Tony Tickle. Please donate to MND, ALS, or another charity close to your heart.
Lets all remember where this Ice Bucket Challenge started, with Pete Frates
