Peonies and Clematis

The Norwegian Cruise Liner "Jade" is in Orkney today and this morning four coach loads of passengers from her descended on the craft shop!  It was the busiest I can ever remember!  

They were mostly Canadian, with some Alaskan, Japanese and Americans amongst them, and all very cheery and friendly.  It was really interesting to talk to them and find out where they had come from and why they were on the cruise etc.  

A quiet afternoon in the garden for me, but another three coaches at the shop!  What a day!  In the evening a good choir rehearsal with lots of hard work, perfecting problem areas.  Not long now until the concert . . .
