Now to hope we have not too much in the way of gales and steady rain rather than a monsoon! Hmmm.<br /><br />The world can look an awful place to live in from certain perspectives. I try to count my blessings from a glass-half-full perspective and just the perfume of a rose or a beautiful view can balance things out.<br /><br />Glad that Tess is feeling better now.

For all of us who are lucky enough to live in a democracy, we have to accept the elected politicians and their actions and find other things to be a bit cheerier about - like the overnight rain that should top up the greenhouse water-butts. <br />the veg artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04029588460808570133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-6928527771151864522018-06-13T09:15:36.403-07:002018-06-13T09:15:36.403-07:00Some rearranging of pots in the garden here too.

So much better to look at life through your window.<br />Unexpectedly, it has been a hot and sunny day here on Sheppey and much enjoyed, and no immeiate threat of the weather that you are expecting.
