Evening all. It’s like a virtual pub on here tonight! Think I’ve missed the round, so I’ll just have my decaf tea. Just had a lovely long shower, the sort which is bliss after a day in the garden with dirty nails and tingling skin from the sun - rather than the feeble, functional, decontamination shower at the end of a work shift. We have all been given loads of gifts of toiletries over the last few months, so I just opened a lovely Aloe moisturiser and a Clinique face cream - lovely.
I watched the stone skimming at Easdale one year when we had a cottage on nearby Seil beautiful little islands. I thought the programme was British eccentricity at its best.

It was @punkdoc ... as passionate (or more) as some folk are about football, motor racing and TT racing ... but it’s ‘throwing stones‘ and seems to have fewer rules than Grandmother’s Footsteps. And the men were competing in a World Championships wearing their gardening clothes.
It was up your way somewhere @Fairygirl ... I must admit the geography got me a little baffled.
Now I must sleep ... night night all .., sleep tight 😴

Morning @Dovefromabove & @Hostafan1, I've just come in from watering the baby Cosmos and Zinnia gently and half drowning a moved and bald looking hydrangea Paniculata I rescued from the undergrowth last week. Surprisingly it has got a few little shoots on it.
