No gardening!

I went for a bit of a walk this morning so have reached me step target today, don’t reach it when I spend the day in the garden. I did a crossword for a while when I got back and then went out for lunch with Tina. She had to make a visit on the way so I sat in the car, took a couple of photos, the bush was pretty and the sky was blue!
Then off for a local lunch….maybe. The mere cafe opens tomorrow.
Then the cafe at Mappleton was closed!
The sea was misty but it doesn’t really appear in the photo.
We went a bit further to a pub we hadn’t been to before and had a nice lunch there.
For the first time in these gardens I have a lily of the valley flowering. I have tried to take photos three times but cannot bend low enough and hold the phone steady. So today I had to the phone upside down and rested it on the ground, then I could reach the button!
Been playing with the coloured pencils this evening,
No gardening today and probably not tomorrow as it is visit day .

  1. Getting your steps in is good, and getting out to lunch, after finding somewhere open is also good. Makes a change not to spend so much, or any time in the garden. I know you'll make up for it another day though.
    At least you had a photo day. I quite like all of them tonight, particularly the mere and Mappleton. I think the lily looks good too, specially after the palaver it was to get it.
    A coloured sketch makes a change. Did the cat actually sit still, is that from memory? 😂
    Enjoy the rest of your evening.

  2. Copied a picture from a calendar, photos of cats.
    It was a bit of a run round but a lovely day to be on a wild goose chase!
    I think I have some plants due to arrive any time which I forgot I had ordered, so the garden definitely beckons.
