Good morning all from a sunny S Hants. Love your photo’s Ashcombe, good luck with your thespians, hope your costumes are not too heavy in the heat. Yesterday was pottering for me, today similar but need to chase JL to confirm if furniture is being delivered Friday or not.
Enjoy your day all ????.
Hope Marydoll and Cherry are rested, maybe some news from Grandmajet.

Morning Mick, morning All. A clear blue sky over our corner of Somerset.
We did venture forth yesterday and had a truly enjoyable day in spite of a couple of traffic holdups. Felt for the folk causing the return journey jam, their car had broken down in the middle lane of a motorway, must have been terrifying. A mix of browsing a couple of shops, a walk round a very pretty lake and several family hours including a very enjoyable BBQ made for an enjoyable day.
We’re staying put today catching up on some admin, cleaning and if the visit from the washing machine engineer proves positive there will be laundry. Also hoping for some positive news of a friend who broke his hip last week, in his late 80’s he didn’t bounce too well.
Take care everyone. Hope Monday is kind to us all especially those with health and other worries.
Morning all from another glorious sunny start here on the south coast.
Your DH has the right idea about Bank Holidays, Mattie and we too always stay put and avoid the crowds and traffic! No pleasure in either! We enjoy our garden and often comment on how fortunate we are to have our own oasis to enjoy. It would be a different story if we had no private outside space.
I am going to give myself a pedicure today. I have a deep moisturising foot pack to try which seems to involve tying some plastic bags round my feet for 20 minutes, whilst they absorb a tea tree and peppermint treatment. I hope to be dancing on air afterwards! 
Hope the day is a good one for us all. 
Good morning, everyone, from a sunny but breezy Torbay.
Yesterday, I packed a picnic lunch and travelled to Teignmouth on the top deck of the bus for the views of Labrador Bay which was unfortunately rather hazy. My destination did not disappoint and I enjoyed a stroll along the prom with many other holidaymakers. After lunch, I indulged in the naughty treat of a 99! The tide was high with spray soaking folk close to the railing which I’ve tried to capture in my third photo.
Today I start three days of being a live “exhibit” at Brixham Museum, alternating between rôle playing a Victorian poet with a smuggler, along with friends from our theatre company.
I hope everyone can find a reason to smile and we shall soon hear from absent friends. ☀️??
