Hot, hot, hot!  We're having a mini-heatwave, I expect we'll have a thunderstorm before long (as usual).  The garden's looking good though...


...my sunflowers are growing like mad!


Been enjoying the BBC's Glastonbury festival coverage from the comfort of our sofa, really loved Coldplay headlining on Saturday night...

Made bread pudding last night with some leftovers....tastes better than it looks! lol  It's rather thin though, next time I'll use a smaller baking tin, hopefully it'll come out thicker and more bread pudding-like!


Had a mooch around the local charity shops this morning and found this nice glass vase for £2.  Pretty, isn't it?

Had a trip up to London on Sunday, went to Columbia Road Flower Market with my girlfriends.  The weather forecast predicted rain around lunchtime but it POURED from the time our train arrived in London around 0930.  I wish I'd worn my hooded rain mac, trying to negotiate stalls and other people with their brollies whilst clutching bunches of flowers and my own brolly was a real pain. Still, we had fun!  Only took one photo (not enough hands and far too wet!)




I have a new Joe Browns' skirt, bought on e-bay!  Yeay!  I love it, it's kinda stripey with sequins.  Here it is....
It was too long (or is it that I'm too short!) so I've rolled up the waistband and tacked it so it stays that way. 


Lovely morning today, nice & sunny.  Popped out into the garden to pick some sweetpeas, mmm, a wonderful scent wafting over my breakfast cereal!


Out for a spot of shopping later (TK Maxx...my favourite shop!!)

Had another trip in our camper this week, to Kessingland on the Suffolk coast.


A relaxing time: lots of reading, great pub food and yummy cider!


Mmmm, Thatchers!

It rained the day we left home but fortunately, it cleared up by the time we arrived at the campsite so I was able to set up in the dry!  And it didn't rain again until we were nearly back home.  Lucky, huh?


Arrived home to find the garden had appreciated all that rain......the vegetables on the patio have gone mad!


potatoes, courgettes, tomatoes & leeks...
