    Good morning et al.  Windy again!  Sunny tho' - the garden is dry.  Going to mound up some fennel I sowed some time ago and sow some more.  Been eating carpacchio of turnip - delicious - straight from the garden to the plate.

    I am sorry it is raining for you - after your lovely weather last week.  Let's hope the rain warms up in July!!!

    Have a lovely last day of June.

    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

    Morning all, 
    Managed a couple of hours gardening yesterday, some stuff has blown in from farmers fields and is everywhere, easy to get up but time consuming. 

    I did enjoy just looking at the flowers too though so I did lose a bit of time doing that. ☺️

    Such lovely colours.

    Morning all/afties Pat. Time for a well earned rest now  ;)
    Not much happening here other than wrangling with the leaking valve on the boiler- again. Guy can't come till Monday 'cos they're all furloughed so a large bucket is required. I'm beyond p*ssed off with it. More leaking down into the hall. 
    I spent yesterday afternoon/evening watching 12 Angry Men. One of the best films ever made.
    Not caught the Bowie set yet, although I did see a little bit of it. Fab. Hope you see it @punkdoc.
    Nice to spend a few minutes just 'looking' @D0rdogne_Damsel :)
    Dry for now, so I might even get a couple of things done, although nothing much needs it other than cutting grass, and as it'll need to dry out, so that's unlikely too.
    Despite the leaden skies, I didn't get wet when I was out. Saw a kestrel swooping overhead with something tasty in his tootsies though.

    @Fairygirl, Bowie was superb . 
    I've got Adele recorded to watch when I've got time.

    I saw a bit of it before I went to bed - I'm usually asleep by half nine while I'm getting up earlier to go out.  ;)
    I watched a bit of the previous prog too - some good stuff on it as well. Neil Diamond was great - you can't help joining in with Sweet Caroline. I don't think there can be many folk who don't the chorus, whatever their age  :)

    There were some absolute treats on the Glastonbury cover. Some new names for me

    I normally can't be bothered with it all, but it's  good when there's certain things shown and you can record, and then pick and choose, or just highlights etc.

    Morning all.
    Still in bed having coffee. Late because someone was snoring in the early hours.
    Shower, brekkies, Tesco, light lunch then tea with friends. Will have to wear a jumper.

    Still grey and windy outside.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
