Colin spent Saturday in his open air workshop putting in some overtime. He's got a batch of 19 circuit boards to finish before Monday.

Seeing this photo again reminds me of how lovely spring was. *sigh*.
New socks. Ok, it's been a very dull week.

I concur with my previous statement.
The crumpled aluminium foil which Colin uses to deter the dogs from lounging on our sofas in the van.
[Our neighbours think we're a bit odd.]

The foil didn't last, Fern sleeps on the sofa when we're not about but is always very careful to never let us see her on it!
Daisies in our garden with primroses and bluebells in the background. Shortly after I took this photo I mowed down all the daisies with the lawn mower.

I miss the lovely garden. I hope we can reinstate it next year.
The bread tree. A rare species, indigenous to the Peranzubuloe district of Cornwall, it flowers only once every 50 years and yes, its fruit are doorstop slices of granary bread.

If I recall correctly, I'd set up my tripod to take photos of visiting birds. I'm not sure I actually managed to take any photos of them though.
Siamese dogs attached at the head. When Barney stands up, Fern is upside down.

Cute eh?
An interloper arrived yesterday evening on a bag containing three home grown cauliflowers from our neighbour Sally. Photo a bit blurry to replicate previous wine consumption.

I've reread my description several times and I don't think it makes sense.
Mmmm I baked a coconut and chocolate chip loaf cake this morning as the weather was rubbish and we needed cake for lunch. It was lovely still-warm from the oven.

I just don't manage to bake as much as I used to. I blame the house rebuild and the fact that our builders, who I used to make cakes for, have gone too.
More droplets, this time on the wonk.

I do like this photo too. Taken on the L4.
The view from my office.
I don't usually work in my car, parked in a layby on the A30 but today I did!

This photo just makes me cross now. My then boss was always running late for everything and this was the reason I sat in a layby for half an hour waiting for him to turn up and hand some stuff over to me. I hate tardiness, although it's such a good word.
The side of a silo.

I like the wavy form of the corrugated steel which contrasts with the engineered bolt heads. Taken on the L4 I believe.
