Lashings....

...of rain. 

Our feline barometer was showing rain all day, and was so snuggled-up in his blanket that the opportunity was missed to leap out and execute a collared dove. 

Nancy forgot that she had an online training course and I had some admin to do, so pastry left-overs from Pete's visit yesterday and coffee was consumed, and the radio listened to (in my case). 

We'd talked briefly about nipping down to Jed to buy a couple of apple trees but the day ran away from us. 

Later my lamb cutlets were a triumph and the cat awoke from his deep slumber and tried to claw his way on to my plate. Thankfully I won this time.
