I had decided not to come home between the groups today so that I could spend a bit longer working on the pollinator/wildflower bed. I thought I would work a bit longer and then have some lunch in Dunkeld before the afternoon group. I didn’t walk in this morning as Tina had an appointment in Dunkeld. She came and had a look at where I have been working. After the tea break I carried on working and picked up at about 1pm. I went up to the public loos and washed my hands thoroughly there before going to have lunch. I went to Corbenic and when I was leaving I thought of getting a small note book and a pencil so I could do a sketch at the group. They sold notebooks but no pencils, so Katie, one of the staff said she would see if there was one in their pen pot. There was, so I was all set. I walked up to the cathedral grounds before gong to the group to find a twig to draw! I sat and sketched while listening to the gerneral chatter, over tea and cake of course.
I helped clear away and then walked home. Have had dinner. I started trying to knit the hat but went wrong with the rib almost immediately shove undone it, all 130 stitches, may try again in a bit, then again…..
No plans for tomorrow, maybe a bit more gardening here!
You are keen to get that bed sorted, which is good. Don’t overdo it though. It was good you got a lift there, and an admirer of your handiwork 😊
ReplyDeleteStrange that a place that sells notebooks doesn’t sell pencils. Bit like a shop that sells bolt and no nuts! 😊 Nice of them to go to the trouble of finding you one though.
I love the drawing. That was a hell of a twig you found!
Good luck with the knitting. I do things like that all the time. It’s very annoying though 🙂 But you won’t give in, you’ll get it done. Hope so, or you’ll have a cold head this winter 😂
Something exciting might happen tomorrow and you’ll have to leave the gardening until another day.
I have got the bit between my teeth to get the bed sorted and the digging was reasonably easy today.
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about trying to draw the lichen on the twigs for a while, there is so much of it on the ground up here. It was just a regular school pencil so I was pleased with the result.
You never know what might turn up tomorrow, so we will see.
