    Afternoon all.

    Day off and it’s been good weather, apart from a cloud-burst just now (mad dash to bring in washing and an indoor chair I had taken outside). 

    Tennis watching now - supper is a one-pot so will be able to plate it up during one of the sit-downs/change of ends. 

    Hope you are all doing ok.

    I suppose everyone is watching tennis now, even I have Andy in the background.

    We enjoyed our lunch in the pub. We both had pasta with prawns and smoked salmon in a creamy dill sauce. Then I had orange pannacotta with red berry compote and OH had sticky toffee pudding. I've felt sleepy ever since. I have just been out for a walk in the drizzle and feel a bit brighter.

    Nope.  Been having a late dinner after fixing the seep hose system in the polytunnel.   It seems OH has used the twirly metal tomato supports to hold up his flipping raspberries instead of my toms so they need retrieving and using as intended.

    Tray bake sausages with red onion, yellow courgettes and red cherry tomatoes.   We have concluded that we need a family day out with lunch in a restaurant somewhere near or on a suitable beach.  Best do that in the next 10 days then before the Parisian descend.

    Just came to check in here as tennis doesn't seem to be the relaxing game I think it is. Very nervewracking, but Murray back on the up... Come on Andy!
    Still in time to edit: Yessssss!!!!!

    We're not watching tennis or football. All sport leaves me absolutely cold. Never been sporty in my life.
    I finished shortening the sleeves on my tops but it took longer than I anticipated, hope I don't have to do that for every long sleeve top I buy in the future. I know I'm losing height but in my arms as well? !!!
    We are so looking forward to eating out next week - absolute bliss for me not having to cook. Your meals sounded delicious BL and Obelixx.
    Better go to bed, got to be up early for OH's hospital appointment for hip x-ray.

    Hello everyone. July has arrived here. 🙄

    our son and his gorgeous cat have gone home, so we are back to normal. It’s a tie of birthdays for our family. Daughter on 5th and Hubby on 11th. After that things settle down until December. 

    See you all in July.
