Days trickle by like sand inside an hour glass. Before you know it, it will all be gone. Time I mean. We should make the most of it but it is very easy to squander time and to put off the things we mean to do until another day. A small victory today was the sowing of twenty four runner beans into little plastic  pots and five courgette seeds too. They are up in the front bedroom now waiting for moisture and warmth to stir them from their slumbers. I had collected the runner beans last autumn and dried them in a sunny window.

I won’t be back to the village until after 9 pm. Thank goodness for Trendy Carol and her hubby who will be dog sitting. Yesterday was a self care sort of day. I jet washed Bluebell and spring cleaned her interior, which pleased me greatly.I made a sort of Thai noodle thing with half fat coconut milk for today’s lunch and a spiced butternut squash soup for my tea.  I washed and repaired my broken gargoyle and placed him in the inglenook and banked another 400 pounds in sponsorships for the memorial hall windows . And my friend Colin texted with pictures of our shabby chic hotel in Venice which has been all booked and paid for ……what fun…Venice,  To be fair most people go on ...
