I'm back!

Normal service is resumed.  The 21 word challenge is almost over and I'm back from my travels.

I've been to Australia and I will be sharing photos of our visit over the next few posts but not necessarily in the order they were taken.  I know many of you enjoy seeing the places I've visited.

We were visiting our son, daughter-in-law and 3 grandchildren.  One of the things that Andy arranged for us was a visit to the New South Wales Rail Museum.  I love steam railways and we got to ride on a steam train!











This was a great thing to do on a very rainy day.

Thanks for joining me today.

How are you getting on?  I hope you are joining in.  If so please put your sentences in the comments below.

Last week's words

Halcyon
As we get older we remember the halcyon days of our carefree childhood, especially summer holidays, when it never rained, and the sun always shone.

Lissom
As I’ve got older I have become less lissom although I do wonder if I was ever agile and supple!

Resplendent
In all the formal processions for the Queen’s funeral the military all looked resplendent in their uniforms.

16. Redolent

17. Serendipitous

Still more words

We're over half way through our challenge.  Yeah!

Let's start with last week's sentences

Luxuriant
Television adverts for shampoo and for colourants always offer the promise of luxuriant hair.

Compelling
I found the television coverage of the Queen’s death and funeral quite compelling. Britain does ceremony so well

Evocative
The smell of lavender is so evocative, bringing back memories of picking lavender stems and weaving ribbon to make them into lavender wands.

And now on to this week's words:

13. Halcyon

14. Lissom

15. Resplendent
