It's such a perfect day.....tra, la...









It's hard to believe I live in a city at 7 a.m. on a glorious Spring morning ...
birds singing, no traffic (well hardly any),
a couple of joggers and a fellow dog-walker or three viewed at a distance.






We have a new local shop so able to buy newspaper and walk round to Perfect View which has these glorious views.......hence the name (!)















Just above is Richmond Hill and the Beacon which is where I'd love to have a house but 1. they're way too expensive for us and 2. there are never any houses up for sale, so that's all right then!














Now who's this you might ask?  He's our Aussie neighbour, Mat.  Father of 3 delightful children and married to Liz who's lovely.  Mat's a keen gardener and is much more organised than I'll ever be. Here he is contemplating repotting his bay tree (left of front door) and wondering how to get the damn thing out of its pot!  Lucky for him he had me passing by so was able to advise and watch to make sure he did it properly!!! (Only joking Mat).














The day ended with the most splendid sunset which threw deep reds on the distant trees which pretty much matched the houses at the bottom of our street.
