Dry

The stream in the village has run out of water!  The gravel bed is now exposed to the sun and where in the spring I stood paddling in wellies, I now walk in my trainers.  I am not sure how frequent an occurrence this drying out is but I don't recall it in previous years and there is some speculation that water is being abstracted upstream.

Another warm day at 25 degrees.  A bit cooler and cloudier than yesterday which was a relief.

Today I created an office space for myself in our spare back bedroom.  I've got a new desk and now need to find a suitable chair to go with it.  For the moment I have borrowed the chair I was using whilst working at the kitchen table.  I am still getting used to the space but so far it seems good.  It is peaceful and I have a view out across the back garden to trees and a few cottages beyond.  Interesting to get a different perspective on my surroundings.
