This morning I met up and had a long lazy coffee or three with an old colleague and friend. It has been 6 years since we last had a meet up and it was lovely. We are repeating this later this summer. My 19 year old car refused to start, but after a jump start with leads from hubby's car, it was fine. It is now on a full 24 hour charge. Then home and lunch, then gardening. Clearing weeds and overgrown things that have appeared from nowhere. Heartily sick of geraniums throwing out seeds that develop so fast and grow out of the roots areas of my other plants, strangling them. Then our next door neighbour invited us round for a glass of wine in her garden. It was white wine but hey! It was wine. She is a widow, aged 81, very sprightly and alert, but so lonely and missing her husband. Then more gardening and a walk round the block with Ness. Soon be tea time. Nothing fancy tonight. A fry and grill up. It still hasn't rained.
