Still sunny in the SE (sorry EkwaNimitee). Just bought some plants. The earth is lovely and moist and easy to manage at the moment.

I'm feeling itchy and scratchy... not physically, - mentally.
Sort of unsettled for some reason.

After doing my 3 bears act - too hard, too soft, just right - I think, Ive just ordered a new mattress for my bed. Expensive mistake if I’ve got it wrong ?

Whilst out driving today I’ve seen 3 items of black and white clothing abandoned; one on the road one in a garden centre carpark and one on a wall. Is somebody doing a staggered striptease?

My erratic printer, which refuses to work when it's wanted, has unasked for, just spewed out the final page of a knitting pattern. I wonder what it's trying to tell me.

I’ve never seen an umbrella with the F word on it till today. It seemed somehow inappropriate in Harrogate.

Forgive me for answering but I once saw an umbrella that said ‘merde il pleut’

Had to google that Juliet ......... and it sounds much better in French!

Asda had 3 clematis for £5 yesterday. I couldn't resist such an offer. I've planted them this morning.

Something is eating my passion flowers. I'm going to google it in a minute.

At a garden centre on Saturday, a woman wearing a lanyard rebuked me for not having a mask on as I crossed the car park. Her masked DH muttered something about kettle and pot.

I'm having a bit of a clear out and at long last I have found the instruction booklet to my sewing machine which hasn't been seen since I moved here, probably about seven years, to my shame.

Yesterday I went to move a pile of branches, which was cut about 3-4 weeks ago. Suddenly I spotted a nest with 3 little blue eggs, neatly placed among the branches.
This morning, I had a quick look and there was a blackbird sitting in the nest.

Football's coming home….

My darling sister-in-law has just sent me a Birthday card and written such a lovely message in it it made me want to cry!!

Lovely walk today along the canal with DGS6 in his pram. Loads of dragonflies and butterflies, and ducks who weren’t at all impressed by the rolled oats and shredded lettuce we threw them for lunch. You could see them pining for the Sunblest days.

It's raining this morning and cool, but I'd rather be here than where that dreadful heat is in western Canada and USA. Those poor people.

Nearly finished decorating our bedroom thank heavens its taken all 2 weeks and my house looks like a tip. ?

It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home….
