Cream tea

Mr C took the van south of the river for a habitation check. So I was up baking early before it got too hot.

Val brought her daughter along for coffee and cake in the garden this morning and in the afternoon Carol came with pink Prosecco to have with the scones and tea, also under a sun brolly in the garden. The local deli had clotted cream and a friend had given me some blackcurrant jam. It was very delicious. We did leave some for Mr C.

It is just so hot. We’re taking the boys to the beach tomorrow but I have the postponed phone consultation with the orthopaedic surgeon in the afternoon. My iPhone stops ringing after one ring and though I’ve googled the problem it isn’t any of the faults listed.
