We’ve had some lovely weather this week, which means the
wandering welder has been able to get on with re-siting the pond.
Getting there
Yay at last
Another at last is the letter from the government inviting me to take up my
State pension in August. Will I be taking it .... hell yeah of course I will.
I’ve waited an extra six years for this. Bring it on.
Just in time for tea.
A special treat arrived from our lovely friends Julia, Harry & Toby.
Four Yorkshire Fat Rascals from Betty’s Tearoom. We hadn’t even
boiled the kettle before we had eaten the first ones. Not sure the other
two will see the day out.
I bought this book for Mum but I’ve started reading it as we
have been following them on the telly. Farming programmes
have been such feel good viewing over the last year, along with
gardening, book club ones and others like Sewing Bee, Bake off,
Great Pottery Throw Down and the current jewellery making challenge.
I mustn’t forget Grayson Perry’s Art Club, The Repair shop, Would I lie to You
and our current favourite At Home with the Richardson’s on channel Dave
on Thursday nights. It has us in stitches. Could be a northern thing though.
I don’t know about anyone else but we’ve been grateful for the great
programmes that have been made. One we would definitely watch again
is The Serpent starring Jenna Coleman.
Good friend Vix posted this pic on her blog of the seeds I’d sent her
in memory of my Auntie Gladys. It’s so nice to see them growing.
I’m taking Mum out to our favourite tearoom today for a bit of alfresco lunch.
Hope the sun comes out, it’s looking a bit cloudy just now.
Enjoy your day
Lynn
