    Temperature is rising ... 21.4C now ... still overcast but brighter.

    My shopping bag on wheels has arrived via My Hermes ... very efficient and ahead of schedule ... and it doesn't look at all 'old lady-ish'  B)   Phew!

    Tennis is on ...

    Something to feel happy about ... we have Leafcutter Bees in the garden ... lots of circular chunks missing from my Rosa 'The Mayflower'  <
    He's a bully indeed - he's coming up here later. I wonder how many folk will have their Mexican flags ready  ;)
    Anyway - you've given us something nice to think about Dove. I keep hoping I have some, but I know it's only r*ddy vine weevil notches  :D
    That's very nice Hosta. I was at a local shop on way home, and there's a little Waitrose there. I could see those sitting outside - don't think daughter would have been happy if I'd gone and bought one!
    Hoping Rafa wins later. It was some match the other day. I was exhausted just watching it  :D
    Caught a pic of Harrier stuffing her little face yesterday. She's eaten the hedgehog bix I put put last night too. Happy days  :)

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Fidget I lost my bush overnight to the balckbirds. There will be no creme de cassis for the Christmas cocktails this year!
    Fairy your wee spikey is cute!
    breathe in Joyce here he comes
    Dove I love shoppers. So much better for us than carrying everything one sides!
    have had so. Ice fruit the last two days have prepped it for summer puddings to pop in the freezer. Anyone tried it with brioche?

    HI Just a little whisper but we had 18mm of rain and some more forecast for tomorrow, so I am keeping my fingers crossed. hope everyone is looking for the week end. Pat we don't get as cold s you but we never get any snow futher inland get the snow. I took oh into Port Elizabeth on Wednesday for our monthly lunch but he said he was pleased to get home, I think he found the journey to much I have got him walking up our street and back down again. Dove I have had ashopper for years now and at leasst it saves your back and is easier to get that bit extra shopping in, luckly i only live 5min walk from our sm so i don't have far to go, has PDoc gone on holiday. What happen to Dracha the guy that lives in Russia?.

    Perfect shopping trip. 
    Waitrose 1 Sicilian lemon tart: 20p each as the boxes were all stuck to each other. Seemed rude not to buy 3.

    Hi all. Chuffed to bits that I’m home from work and not only has the second semi final of the men’s tennis not started yet, but I am treated to a fifth set of the first match. 
    I picked up a French stick on way home, in anticipation of a no-cook supper. Would have fancied a lemon tart for ‘afters’.


    My garden and I live in South Wales.
