Just Sophie was in when I got there but she made me a drink and I picked a new item, a toadstool to paint.
I decided on subtle, didn’t want red spots!
I hadn’t seen this tile painted, I did it when everyone was busy on the flowerpot workshop.
Caroline had put all the coasters in one of the window displays.
Tina had been going to lunch with a friend but the friend has Covid, so Tina came up to meet mens have lunch. She had had quite a trying morning so I suggested an ice cream by the sea on the way back. Nice warm day today and a bit of relaxing sea air.
The spiky daisies ar in full bloom now and attracting insects.
While the scaffolding was at the top corner of the front garden I couldn’t get access. The area was untidy and getting very overgrown, so I thought it was time to try and get it a bit tidier.
It was quite a job, especially long the pavers. Not completely sorted, but at least accessible without being attacked by brambles.
An unusual butterfly rested for a while.
Have been to see Sarah and David this evening.
Don’t blame you for going on the bus. Make use of the bus pass, I think you’ve earned it over the years.
ReplyDeleteI like the toadstool. Does it have a purpose, or is it just for show? The tiles do look good all together like that. The red one really stands out.
Ice cream by the sea sounds a nice idea. The weather was quite nice here this morning and most of the afternoon. But as I type this the rain is coming down quite heavily.
The gardening you did today looks like it was hard work. It does look so much better though. As I keep saying, you’re a glutton for punishment!
The last pic is a swallow tail moth. Nice looking things.
Hope you had a good evening visiting.
The toadstool is just an ornament, but quite cute.
ReplyDeleteIt was quite busy on the front, people making most of a rare sunny day!
A couple of people commented when I was doing the garden saying things like ‘don’t get lost in the jungle’!
