BANK HOLIDAY SUNDAY SO OF COURSE IT'S RAINING...


The day started out ok so felt quite positive about "getting things done".  Marcus volunteered (by me) to continue painting the hall, which he did on condition that Bella and I were out of the house. So we retired to the garden to tackle the jungle at the end. Two hours later, and a mountain of foliage, I'd had enough so snuck into kitchen and got a salad together for lunch.  Marcus very pleased with his painting (as am I) as the new stuff went on so well and doesn't smell.  Quick advert here: Santuary paint from Homebase. It's their own version of Farrow & Ball but much cheaper.

We had promised ourselves a visit to Alice Park today as there was a fundraiser for the greyhound rescue charity.  Just about to leave house when rain clouds gathered with a vengeance and by the time we reached the park it was raining. So we decided to go to Victoria Park, which is bigger and has more shelter so Bella got a walk......



No sooner had we arrived then the tropical storm kicked in....



....but even Bella didn't fancy a walk in that thank you very much!



Being a gent, Marcus insisted I remain in the car while they braved the elements so I just took photographs instead.
