Greetings! I’m Suzy Barker. Based in Lincolnshire in the UK, I have a deep love and respect for the natural world I live in. I’m passionate about my family, writing, photography and being outdoors in the countryside. Oh, and I should mention – I’m an eternal optimist. My cup is always half full.
Business is my daily barrow; I consider myself fortunate to spend my time running my own business, and honoured for being permitted a positive role in other people’s enterprises.
You can sample my personal and family ramblings and rantings and my pictorial adventures right here.
Welcome to my real world where I am grateful for the little things. I’d love to have you join me for the crackpot ride.
Suzy Barker

Hello Bunty, thank you for the comment, and the follow. I have always lived in Lincolnshire; we are on the edge of the wolds, and not far from the county town of Lincoln if you are familiar with that?

We stayed for about a week in the National Trust Cottage in the centre of Lincoln (40/42 Michaelgate) in the spring of 2008. We used trains to get around so didn’t go into the wolds, though we should have. I believe my Dad was in Lincolnshireduring WW II.
