Just been watching the news, such an awful situation in Germany. I feel so sorry for them.
Seems a bit frivolous now, but we enjoyed visited the NGS garden today. It was like a mini Bressingham, great selection of plants. I've posted photos on the Garden Visits thread.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Back home after a delightful light lunch with friends, salad with cold meats (local butchers) and a selection of yummy desserts, plus a surprise birthday cake. We didn't know it but it was the hostess's birthday today so I was glad I'd taken a boxfull of plants for her. Far too hot to think of a Sunday roast, so just defrosting some bread for beans on toast. It's still about 27c here. I don't like bats either @AuntyRach, but quite enjoy watching them flying around above the front lawn (from the safety of indoors!).
I actually typed visiting, not vining. 😡 we woke to a fairly heavy layer of white stuff outside this morning. Not sure if it was snow or frost. It disappeared once the sun came out.
Good morning everyone 😊 ☕️ hello @Pat E 😊. A warm night and morning here … the first job of the day will be watering the containers, and I noticed a honeysuckle yesterday that looks very thirsty …
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Still cold and overcast here at 4.15pm. Hubby had to go in for a scan today, so I’ve done the shopping on my own. ( much cheaper) 😂😂. And I got everything on the list ! Don’t tell him I said so, though.
I'm getting fed up with having to scan my phone in at every shop( and remembering to log out as I leave). I do understand why they want to keep track of us all, but it doesn’t make it any less irritating.
Hope you all have a good day.
Hosta, I hope you can get a rest. It’s not good for you to be driving far when you’re tired and you’ll feel happier if you’re not tired. I know, because the Tour didn’t finish until 4am, so we gave up and recorded the last bit where they’re riding around Paris. Might get a chance to catch up now that we are home and when Hubby picks up his cup of tea and sits down.

Awake since 4am. So bored with the total exhaustion

Did an early enough morning patrol to apprehend a few Cyrils having fun in the dew-laden flower bed in the front garden.
Back in with a handful of strawberries to put on my cornflakes
Scorchio again today, so resting is the order of the day.
Thank you @Pat E, for your country's wonderful good sense in removing that evil witch Katie Hopkins.
