A pretty humdrum week hereabouts: a day at the hobby for me, a somewhat bruising blood test (normal: no action), and a trip to the dentist to get a filling replaced. Feeling in need of a little treat today, I suggested a trip to a nearby lavender nursery, where we admired the display planting, and treated ourselves to a couple of new plants.
The hot weather seems to be bringing out the kamikaze drivers: in the course of half an hour’s drive this morning we had two emergency avoidances, eg a young man careering at us down a single track road at a good 40 and losing control when he saw us and slapped on the anchors. And of course the usual complement of idiots nattering or texting on hand-held phones as they drove. I can just about contemplate the point at which I take an account with a local taxi firm instead.
Less than two weeks still our next jolly jaunt, so we’ve been reviewing stocks of shorts and summer shirts.
