Boarding in a sec. hope everything runs to schedule as I am due at a Garden Club talk by Sue Biggs of the RHS on Weds evening. The idea is to go and keep myself awake til UK bedtime - hope she’s a good speaker or she might find one of her audience snoring 💤😴😳☺️

It's so long since I've done any serious gardening my hands are full of little scratches and tears form thorns and so on and they're all a-tingle cos I did a lovely fresh and spicy olive oil, chilli and garlic dressing for pasta for lunch. Must not rub my eyes!
