Yesterday evening I got the pencils out and tried a sketch. Very crafty this year so far, but no resolution to be so!!

It was a grey miserable morning and my mood was much the same as I had an unsettled night. Decided to go down and see the hut and the sea. I went through the park, these swans were heading my way, obviously thought I had food for them!

I love the twisted willows, seems a shame when they are cut for flower arrangements.

I also love these little black and white ducks, can you feel the love? Obviously I needed to be out and about even though it was a wet grey day. When I got to the hut I couldn't open it, so went back to the office and they sent a man down with an oil can and a bit of brute force! The sea was grey and choppy today, I did try and get some idea with watercolours, not my best effort, but an effort at least!

I decided to walk back the slightly longer way through the park and passing the open air theatre. Took these two pictures of the birds on the sea as I made my way there.

It began to rain really hard as I made my way back so I was drenched by the time I got indoors. This afternoon watched a film on the Now tv and then decided to  blitz the bedroom. I want to reduce my belongings but ended up shifting all the furniture around and trying to discard a few of the storage boxes. Best go and get on so that I can get into the bed later!!
