A few weeks ago I really wanted to play Scrabble but I a) didn’t have a Scrabble board b) didn’t have anyone to play with. Well roll forward …I found a Scrabble board in a charity shop in Greenwich and my friend Jo came to stay. A delicious lunch at Emilia in Ashburton, followed by a walk at Spitchwick. Red wine, cheese and biscuits and Scrabble made the perfect Saturday night evening. My rock n roll has matured….*****
So after a really hectic couple of weeks, working overtime, I finally had a full weekend off with no plans and no obligations.
Went to my dear summer house (first time this year) and did a bit of pottering about in the garden.
This tree which I found in the wild and replanted in my garden looked really dry and shriveled from a distance but actually had small buds getting ready to sprout.
Also while gardening swallowed a small twig and almost choked on it. Not sure how I managed this but my throat is still in shock about this twig going down the wrong pipe.
