    My RTBC is that the robin family have consumed all the soil grubs I dug up today.  Mr R (or maybe Mrs?  -or both??) is very nervous, but has learned that the plant saucer on the patio is the place to look, for big fat juicy wriggly things to feed his babies.   :)

    Jack Draper?  A 19 year old English lad who took a set off Djokovic in the first round at Wimbledon today. Acquitted himself really well … definitely one to watch 🎾

    And now I need to go to bed as I feel like a wrung out dishcloth. Andy Murray won a few moments ago but it was a rollercoaster all the way. Just brilliant tennis though all of it.

    Sir Andrew Murray is a professional Scottish tennis player, two time Wimbledon champion but not played seriously for the last four years whilst recovering from medical issues.  Thank you Dove for stepping in and doing the bio for Jack  :)

    Great photo @Pansyface.  Looks such a happy cat, reminds me of mine.  Can't name the book I'm afraid.
    OH says 'Cat in a Hat' ?

    Picked the first courgettes today, no doubt I will be sick of the sight of them in a few weeks :D The first cucumber is ready in the greenhouse too.
