    I bought myself a set of Derwent pastel pencils today. Can't wait to have a play with them. No more filthy fingers from the pastel sticks, I hope. image

    Hope Dove has a good journey - roads still pretty quiet round here.  Schools are back next week, so I'm making the most of an easy commute whilst it lasts.

    Have a good day peeps image

    Morning all. 

    Late on parade again. image

    We sat and watched episodes 3, 4 and 5 of Doctor Foster and didn't finish until 1.40am.imageimage

    I can't remember the last time I was up so late.

    Stuff to do before Dove and OH arrive, but I need a serious amount of tea first.

    Good morning.  Clear blue skies and a cool start but warm sun today with a fresh breeze.  Pottering indoors all morning and outdoors later.

    Hope Dove arrives in good form Hosta and your washing dries FG.

    Used to love Derwent crayons when I was  kid Pat.  Fabulous colours.  Dad brought me a new set every year when he was in the Lakes on "apprentice outdoor bound" week with his charges at the CEGB as was.   Enjoy your new ones.

    Golf GWRS!! 

    Have a lovely day everyone.
