Loverly images of the countryside, Rick.

Wish I'd been with you on the walk.

We never see such a thing as thatched roofs here in the colonies. Amazing how thick they grow over time. (don't mean grow grow, but grow as layers are applied). And how charming the trimmed out peekaboos are for the upper story windows.

No, they are made that way. Different thicknesses depending on materials used. After somewhere between 10 and 50~70 years, the whole lot is stripped off and redone. The idea of layers is a non-starter.

We took a ramble through the countryside around the small Oxfordshire town of Watlington yesterday. It was fairly warm (~10C) and hazy, but beautiful. The hedges are brown and most of the trees are still bare, but there are many signs of spring.
