Sloes

I spent some of the morning putting the solar string lights back onto the balcony. I took them down because the house was being painted. I have now found a great many more little things that have not been completed, before he disappeared, never to be seen again. So if you are thinking of employing a painter, please post a message to check that it is not the rogue that we employed.
 
Today’s picture is of some sloes, growing opposite my home on my one street. These will be picked by villagers, long before they are ready as sloes should have had a least one frost on them in order to make good sloe gin.
 
The temperature at noon today was thirty degrees Celsius.
