Monthly meet up with Paul in the café. Good chat as usual.  


9 July 2023

A walk in the village and a game of cricket.



8 July 2023

A trip to Chorlton to meet Simon and Teresa. While we were in the Tap there was a torrential downpour which lasted the best part of an hour. That's the weather now. Either hot and dry or cool and wet. We are in the climate crisis.



7 July 2023

Paul and Janet came to stay over. I was very hot, but we went for a walk when it had cooled down a bit. Later we had some wine and a good Chinese takeaway.







Sunflowers and bees.


4 July 2023

 Food from the garden. Broccoli and broad beans.




2 July 2023

I've been planting as many wildflowers in the garden as I can. Now we have lots more bees! 😄

Coming back from Ravenstone was a nightmare. We got suck in a traffic jam on the A50 for two hours 😩 



30 June 2023

The day of the funeral. The service was at 10.30am with a good turnout. Afterwards we went to her house for some sherry and refreshments provided by Nigel and the rest of her family.


29 June 2023

A trip to Ravenstone for Rita's funeral. She was 90 when she died. A lively character who lived in the village and was known to many. I had a sit in the churchyard. Quiet contemplation.
