Ready for some midweek fun down on the marsh.

The old girl has still got it! A lovely evening out duck flighting with a small group. Now in the fridge to have for supper one night next week.

Spot the Labrador…🤣

My first visit to Cornwall. It certainly won’t be my last! Stayed at the amazing dog friendly @KernockCottages and had the most incredible week of exploring both in land and along the coast. Planning my next visit already!

‘Out of office’ on…

Norfolk Wagyu salad, homegrown veg & herbs.

Ended the week with a wonderful cello session. We played a superb duet that was truly satisfying 👌

Potato harvest day.

Spicy chicken souvlaki tonight.

Favourite room taking shape.

Spotted this beautiful little bee orchid on the village green this morning. Sadly it’ll be a matter of days before it disappears under a lawnmower, but it certainly brightened up a grey morning!

First of the dahlias to flower.

“New” (to me) vintage garden furniture.

Rosa ‘Wollerton Old Hall’.

Now the very proud custodian of this incredible painting. A pleasure to meet the artist who delivered it in person.

Anticipation!

Pyracantha has burst into flower around the garden. This has to be one of the hardest working shrubs! Evergreen, beautiful blossom that the pollinators enjoy and stunning berries that the birds devour.

View from a kitchen window.

Taking 5 minutes to enjoy the kitchen garden before I started my day.

60 years of bad diy decisions finally undone and the clay lump can finally breathe.
