Yesterday evening at the craft class we made the storage bags on an embroidery hoop. A larger hoop and they turned out quite well. Here is mine.

The postcard entries for the exhibition/sale at Woodend gallery needed to be delivered as tomorrow is the final submission day. I never did find the one I did but Linda made five and Sue made one so I got them delivered.

The garden at Woodend looked great!

I went off then to meet Anne and her mum, she had been in the hostel I ran in the early 1990's and we have kept in touch. They had come to Scarborough on holiday. We had a coffee at the hotel and then took a walk along the front. There were lots of seagulls like this one in a pool on the sand, seemingly paddling!

When I got home Tina took me to Deans garden centre as I am almost out of wild bird seed. We had a look at the plants of course, and I bought a couple. We heard loud bird song near up and to our delight it was a little wren only a few feet away. No time to get the camera out but so lovely. One plant was really attracting the bees.

A few Swifts live there, you can tell this in one by the tail!!

Then we stopped at The Mere and walked round the lake. Took this water lily and I think a water boatman!
