Olives

This is the first morning for a week that I wakened to sunshine.
Although the clouds didn't waste much time in making an appearance, at least it hasn't started to rain again.
I have grave fears that the Meadows are going to revert back to the loch of olden times if the wet weather continues.

With neglected- after-a -month-away -business affairs to attend to, blipping was rather low down on the 'to do' list today , so I give you a glimpse of my digitally painted olives, whose number decreased with every click of the camera shutter- I couldn't resist- they're delicious.

We're hoping for an amicable gathering of Americans tonight as we try to arrange a drinks get-together with our visitors and the Texan neighbours above.
Of course just because they all come from the US doesn't necessarily mean they'll like each other, but we hope so.

I must remember to buy some more olives though.
