Hasn't it been a fantastic day! Wall-to-wall sunshine meant that at last I could get into the garden without a coat. Our back garden faces north and it's only useable from this time of year until October if you're lucky. So armed with spade and fork I started on one of the borders which is going to be transformed into a new sitting area. Have decided to turf it rather than deal with heavy bags of sand and cement which we'd need for laying slabs.
Spent happy couple of hours digging and weeding then realised I'd not much time left before dashing off to hospice for this week's life story session. Really interesting today as we recorded memories of the domestic political upheavals during the Thatcher years.....miners' strike, anti-cruise missiles, Greenham Common and much more. Ah those were the days!
Good news from abroad - we shall be able to get to our remote Greek island as the ferries are running there again. Well sort of. A depleted service means the islanders have no mail collected or delivered and no paper goods, paint, beer or bottled water so have been advised to take our own loo rolls!!
Am now babysitting for neighbours who share our broadband signal so I can write this on my iPad.....but no photos on here yet so it's just me rambling on......
