Digs

Cabot House, student digs for Newfoundland students. Love this 17th century old building and I've wanted to get a photo with the lights on and no car outside for a while - last night no cars and almost all the lights on so that'll do.

It was originally 3 cottages, some time ago was made into one. Last use before being bought by the university was a dentist and a home.

You can see Lucy photobombing. We were just on our way back from the churchyard at nearly 10pm last night.

Just waiting for wildlife lady, my lovely neighbour picked up a injured hedgehog this morning and brought him around at 8am. I phoned local rescue, who said they'd collect. They're late! Hedgy outside, wrapped up warm in a couple blankets. In a bad way, but hopefully will survive.
Love it and with Lucy too

I like the way in which you photographed this inviting home! You say "Newfoundland" and "Cabot House"...is there a Canadian affiliation? (Both those names are so well-known across from your pond!) Sad about the hedgehog; we don't have them, but they're popular in illustrations here! And funny Lucy, "waiting for you" to go home; it's late!

It is part of the Memorial University of Newfoundland, their UK site.. ( https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-67507536 ), the largest building is right behind us, and we get Canadian students here. Always nice kids too, just a bit louder than Brits but nearly always polite, kind and good manners unlike a lot of Brits! We chat often because seeing me with either Lucy or Herman - apparently Herman is getting to be a little famous in the Canadian site so one of the students told me this year, after running out the building to take photo's of her on a walk :-)
