CLOSE SHAVE

It's been a Glasgow sort of day. To the Merchant City in the morning to have a dialogue with some very interesting people. More of that anon - perhaps. Then this evening to dinner at Oran Mor and on to the Kibble Palace with various friends and family to hear the Professor in his barbershop chorus. Chorus and choir battled on against temperatures which must have been near 25 outside and 35 inside. The guys were exceptional.

A late night round up of the garden and cooling down with the bees. There are lots of them already sleeping in the flowers. I like to give them a gentle stroke and tickle, to which they raise one leg as if to say, 'Stop it! I like it!'
