    Today I made lemon drizzle cake and pear and chocolate sponge.  Mother likes lemon but not chocolate, OH likes chocolate but not lemon.  I like both.  :)

    The temperature is at a more comfortable level

    I picked my first strawberry to eat (there were a few others but I didn't get them)

    My green bin has been emptied

    The builders have almost finished our house, on the outside.  Just a path to lay now...   :)
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Another great benefit of the arrival of rain.  I'd made a number of trips to Homebase but turned straight round again because of the stupid queue length.  Went yesterday, no queue and hardly anybody in the place.  I got what I wanted and was back out in about 5 minutes.

    That's what I intended doing re compost @KT53, but the local garage had it back in, so I got some when I got fuel. Saved going near a GC at all. Marvellous!

    RTBC - just now. Swifts making nests under the eaves of the new houses which used to be a farmhouse. Haven't seen them in years round here. My sister [on t'other side of Scotland] had them returning to nest in her eaves too. Lovely jubbly  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
