Yesterday was a day off,we went to the RHS show at Tatton Park,and very nice it was too.Today I am waiting to go back to the garden centre,we did not buy enough pebbles for this back garden.I know why should we sort out a rented garden,well we want Miss P to have somewhere to sit outside on a nice day.She had her first meal there last night,she took a photo and thanked us for the table and chairs.In August we are going to Edinburgh for two days,train booked hotel booked one Graduation ceremony to go to.😀.I am going to have a couple of fine malts to celebrate..

MetOffice says it will be even hotter here today
and the Thunder and Lightening that they were promising yesterday has gone
looks like going for a ride today may be off
Good news - some stuff is arriving to try to get rid of stains and black spot on the patio and drive
the overhanging trees dropped all sort of sap and stuff
so that project can restart - previous attempts have failed
This project also involves part of of
"The Great Shed Move"
which terminates with the building of "The Great New Shed" which is arriving next week
So it is probably good that the stuff is arriving early!

I took the road less traveled to our local post office and was astonished to count eight caravans on various front drives. There used to be a couple of them but it seems they are proliferating. I know a couple of forumites are experienced caravan owners and towers, but I can see that there may well be a fair bit of traffic chaos caused by the novice towers.

We're down the club.
I haven't seen a bap/ roll/ sarnie wrapped in foil for aaages! Did you take your own or do the Club make them up and wrap them in foil?

It's doing its best to break through here, but I won't be sorry if it doesn't make it to be honest. Feeling quite muggy though. Couple of small parcels due shortly then I might be tempted to have a siesta
Very pleasant visit to Berry Pomeroy castle this morning. The last medieval castle to be built in England - 15th century.
Followed by a very entertaining lunch at The Star Inn - bar full of Devonians, Brummies and Geordies. A lot of inappropriate banter, good food and fine ale - what's not to like?

Well that was a busy AND expensive morning 
Taxi to hospital £8.00
Taxi to take MrsD to the hairdresser and me back home £10.00
Then I had to drive to the clinic for hearing aid batteries.
I then took a gamble and parked on double yellows to pick MrsD up.......got away with that one.
Post office for the aunties pension.

Back home now, sat in the shade enjoying a beer.
