Rain!!

Not the sling it down stuff, but gentle rain, shame its hardly wetting the ground.

I was going to wash the towels but will wait and see what its like tomorrow.....they are in the washer ready.

Our new next door neighbour is having a heck of a lot of work done on her bungalow, its a long story, but we are a bit sick of the noise, all weekend, and then a chap comes, presumable after work and starts again, the noise is so bad we have to shut the outside kitchen door......all the work is being carried out without council permission......we had to jump through hoops to get permission for stuff to be done when we came here, and I have been very careful to always ask before arranging to have any work done.

Clouds are scudding across the sky, there is a reasonable breeze, DB has not gone out to the garden today.......

I am spending time in the sewing room, designing a piece of embroidery which, when its done, will be framed to hang on the wall, not for me, its a present for someone. Cannot do any more on the runner till I get the batting, it might come today.

Smoked haddock taken out of the freezer for supper with a poached egg and bread and butter. Strawberries for dessert. The strawberries are quite small, a sure sign that they did not get water early enough, but they are still sweet and delicious.
