week three of showing poppy the sights and sounds of Swindon,

week three of showing poppy the sights and sounds of Swindon, Lydiard park one of the best chill and walk places in Swindon, Lydiard Park is an impressive neo-Palladian Georgian mansion set in a country parkDSCF6793 on the outskirts of Swindon.The house dates in its present form from 1743 when an older H-plan house was remodelled by the 2nd Viscount St John, half-brother of the well-known Tory politician, Lord Bolingbroke.The St John family first came to Lydiard Tregoze in the 15th century and the estate remained in their hands until the 20th century whenDSCF6841 financial problems led them to sell the house and park to Swindon Corporation in 1943.Lydiard Park was empty when the local authority purchased it and they have restored and refurnished it. Much of the original furniture and all of the portraits have been brought back to Lydiard Park.The exterior of Lydiard Park DSCF6829 has changed little  since it was rebuilt in 1743.The two-storey facades are constructed of beautifully cut limestone ashlar.The entrance or south front has a central pedimented feature and there are four Italianate towers at the corners of the building. Much of the old structure survives behind the classical elevations.There have been few changes to the interior since the 18th century.

DSCF6739
this is the vagrant warrior (VW get it) it belongs to a father and daughter pair of traveller’s from Germany i met at Overton, they were touring England looking for stone circle’s, ended up showing them all the photo’s i had on the laptop and writing down all the site’s for them, last but not least “cheer’s you lot” for all the comment’s and mail this week, The Big Fella hope you never took to much skin off your knuckle's fitting inverter, Dave you'll wake one morning and find the comfortably numb parked up by the green garden jethro tull blurring out, Sandy not much meat on that pigeon think I'll take up sheep rustling, think of all those lamb chop’s and wool for poppy to knit me jumper’s from,           

wild living/camping…………………………..

day four, parked up on the Gloucester boarder last night very scenic indeed it was, DSCF6751did have a very young wood pigeon wandering around the van wondering what it was all about, but some bread soon shut him up, so far all this has seemed to fall into place was used to sleeping in layby’s and the like from my trucking day’s learned the ropes then, need really to get back into work now the day’s areDSCF6761 starting to seem like one big holiday and are getting a bit boring too, have got plans and iron’s in fires but it will all take time so in the mean time i will just have to take the first mind numbing thing that comes along, well that’s nearly the first week of it done now I've learnt along the way and DSCF6759have quite enjoyed it, back to normal life the weekend to sort out the power supply should make life a bit easier, then you lot wont have to suffer all these wild living/camping blogs so often,

trying a whole new way,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

been planning this over the past few week’s think you just get to that age when you feel like a change, you just get sick and fed up of the same old crap day in day out, the same old job’s racing around like a headless chicken just to pay for the brick’s and mortar, so I'm going to try this,,,,,, I've rented out my flat loaded all my stuff into the comfortably numb and am going to see if i can live in her for a year, on day two at the moment thing’s aren't to bad, will have a few silly little things out on the van, but I'm enjoying it all so far,

“let’s have some music”…………………………..

“let’s have some music”
“the one and only small face’s”

“what a lovely afternoon”,

“what a lovely afternoon” so thought I'd spend it in the van doing some scribbling and kind of work, very temped to bring my dinner out and cook it in here, “sunshine, good music, and a rather nice drop of cider, “what more is there to life”
