Friday: Down on the Beach

After a good night‘s sleep woke up to another beautiful sunny day.
Our daughter and Cousin Idris had got up early and were on the far side of the beach, they even heard a cuckoo!!!
Whilst it was still cool early morning, I found the large trays I put under the pots, started putting pots on them making it a lot easier to water. I’m using washing up water and water which I’ve washed veggies and salads in - it hasn’t rained since 28th March. Our farmers are finding it challenging, nothing growing.
Noticed that the horse chestnut has a few flower spikes in bud - must keep an eye on them to blip their beautiful flowers.
When our guests arrived we had a cup of tea in the garden, then lunch- which included “garden salad”.
Decided on a leisurely walk down the lane to the beach, tide way out - very warm walking back up the hill, it was around 20°C in bright sunshine. 
We saw a small blue butterfly at the start of our walk but it disappeared over the wall.
MrD had a very long day of deliveries.

Stay safe & healthy and happy everyone and warm and cosy :-)
Nos da pawb / goodnight all xx
