Bye-bye badger stripe

A lazier day than yesterday. Woken by Fletch at 3:50, who was woken by the blackbirds Sigh . I opened the kitchen door and crawled back to bed. 

After a few hot days we decided not to take Fletch too far or too early. As it was the clouds came and there was a cool wind when we walked up to the sea wall. . 

I spent some time today undoing the sleeves I'd knitted. I followed the pattern  but  the sleeves were much too long This seems to be quite common. Maybe I've short arms.

And ... I decided that white hair isn't for me. The 'badger stripe had grown very .wide and the sun seems to have lightened.it even more. ..For some people it suits them but I  felt I looked washed out. So. Thank you Loreal. 

Mikes   choice of film tonight... The Hobbit... Extended version ... again!  I moaned..but actually it is watchable....again!

Blip is.of the pyracantha in our garden.. It didn't flower last year, but looking splendid this year.. and will be a plentiful. supply of berries for the birds this Autumn.
If you look.closely you can see the bird feeder and below one of 'our' blackbirds
