Racing past the half way line today in this the second attempt at a year of photos.

Strawberries are an excellent source of vitamin C, with one cup (halves) providing 149% DV of vitamin C; more vitamin C than one orange. Containing 29% DV of manganese, strawberries are also an excellent source of this essential mineral. In addition, strawberries are a very good source of fiber and iodine, and a good source of:

vitamins B2, B5, B6, and K
folate
potassium
magnesium
copper
phosphorus
omega-3 fatty acids

Strawberries also contain trace amounts of vitamin E, iron, zinc, and selenium.

We cycled from Micheldever to Sutton Scotney and back, village to village, church to church, with a paddle in the Dever on the way back.

Raspberries contain significant amounts of polyphenol antioxidants such as anthocyanin pigments linked to potential health protection against several human diseases. The aggregate fruit structure contributes to its nutritional value, as it increases the proportion of dietary fiber, placing it among plant foods with the highest fiber contents known, up to 20% fiber per total weight. Raspberries are a rich source of vitamin C, with 30 mg per serving of 1 cup (about 50% daily value), manganese (about 60% daily value) and dietary fiber (30% daily value). Contents of B vitamins 1-3, folic acid, magnesium, copper and iron are considerable in raspberries.

Somewhat reluctantly I am selling my quad fish board. It just doesn’t get used enough on the small UK waves, where I prefer to ride my magic carpet. Yours for 320 squids. It’s a unique board, custom made by hand, colours chosen by yours truly and a gorgeous resin tint on the rails and underside (pictured). Made in Cornwall.

At the height of summer autumnal things are happening. The seasons know no lines as they blend into one another.

Today’s guest photographer: Caroline :)

In the Itchen Valley on a cycle ride. I’d like to go inside one day.

Caroline flew this over from Sweden last week. It belonged to her grandmother and dates back, we think to the 1930s. It’s all assembled again after the flight and perfectly ridable. Caroline will do some restoration, particularly for the rust. It has a little tool cassette under the rack, is single gear but freewhweelable and backpedal to brake.

Black case with grid pattern. Silver, white and green label with black lettering.

Just a flower in the vegetable garden.

My sandals got stolen on the train from Munich into the alps so I spent the week in hiking boots or barefoot. I bought these new Tevas in Munich on the way home.

Where I spent 4 hours every day while on holiday in Austria. A good sized deck with full sun shelter on days getting as hot as 38 degrees. It was almost Bikram style!
