06-05-25

Morning, lovely people.  The long weekend is over and life gets back to normal again.  As we all said in yesterday's comments, it was flippin' cold and my heating clicked on through the day.  I think I said in another post, I decided not to get my tomatoes yet as there's a bit of a danger of frost at the moment.  Maybe next weekend.

The highlight of yesterday was catching the RAF fly past as it went overhead.  The various sections were sometime apart - they all have different speeds, of course, and need to be in convoy by the time they reach London - but it was fun standing in the street with neighbours waiting and chatting and it was pretty impressive.  We are lucky to be on the flight path and also that the clouds were high with plenty of blue sky showing.

I didn't feel like I was doing all that much yesterday but most of the things have now been crossed off my list so I'm happy with that.  Because of the gusty winds, the washing dried quite well on the line, which I was great, and I got all the ironing done too in dribs and drabs.  That feels really good.

Today is back to normal so starts with Groove and the walk there and back, wearing a warm coat!  We're not predicted any sun today but it should feel a bit warmer as the day goes on.  As the week goes on too, I hope.
Then I have the Monday housework to catch up on as well as the few things on my list that I didn't do.  It's enough to keep me out of trouble anyway.

I hope you had a lovely long weekend, whatever you did and whether it  was a holiday or not.  Take care, everyone, and be safe.  xx

    1. We were. If we'd had low clouds, we would have missed it. That's happened before. xx

  3. Oh lucky you to see the flypast, even if you did have gaps in proceedings. We've had a great weekend with two lots of family visiting for the first time in ages. I've resisted all urges to do any housework today though. You are much better behaved than me. ;-)

  4. Flypast's are awesome. We only get to see that once in awhile here in my little corner. Good for you in getting all those things marked off.

    God bless.
