Joy

..doesn't seem a commodity much on anyone's shopping list in the UK right now.  Not even those who 'won' seem very light-hearted.  My daughter was walking back from work yesterday past the School of English when some guys yelled from their car at her, "Get out of our country." 

Hmm!

Anyway, it was a beautiful morning and I thought I'd try for some joy today so I picked roses and lavender from the garden.  Here they are: a bit scruffy, rather plonked in the jug than arranged, but they are looking very cheerful in the living room.  And if nothing else, they celebrate a personal feeling that this year, after several years trying, one small part of my patch does as last look like a mini rose garden.

So that's me for today.  Choir this evening.  It will be nice to get out and sing.  Enjoy yours  xx
