Cup of tea and cake with friends.

We went to see you friends this afternoon. First visit since the Lockdowns. They’ve had their garden revamped.
And the summerhouse can be used as an outside workspace, as it’s had lights and plenty of plugs installed.
Jim apologised for not having mown the grass!
Everyone’s lawns are growing like mad after all the heavy rain and warmer temperatures.
A lovely afternoon catching up and sampling Jackie’s homemade “Jiffy” cake. A recipe of her mother’s which is put together quickly!
Old recipe books are such precious things. All handwritten.
Still recovering from England’s win last night. (Despite the controversial penalty).
The scenes in London and elsewhere in the country just had the overwhelming sense that everyone had decided that they’d had enough of Covid restrictions.
And why is it that the powers that be won’t allow parents to go and watch their children’s schools’ Sportsday events! When thousands were just packed together singing and dancing, and hugging everyone in sight!
So sad.
For my hairdresser it is her daughter’s last ever Sportsday at Primary School, before moving up to Secondary in September.
Yes, Football may indeed be Coming Home, (or not) on Sunday but so will a mighty big new wave of Covid infections, maybe………..time will tell.
The genie is well and truly out of this bottle.
