Hope you all had a beautiful celebratory weekend.
Between ironing, odd jobs and gardening I half watched lots of the Coronation ceremony, it is the historical past of the entire thing that I discover so wonderful……. to assume what number of Kings and Queens have been topped within the Abbey. A really distinctive and transferring ceremony. To rejoice I made scones and acquired clotted cream however no particular quiche.
Within the TV studio somebody commented that different international locations have riots about change of Prime Ministers, deaths of leaders and many others however right here we had all these occasions within the house of some weeks and nobody rioted, no civil wars have been began and the brand new King did not have any opposition that might have prompted any critical issues. I reckon all that was performed prior to now – 100s of years in the past, so we all know the results! I am very glad to reside in a peaceable nation. (Though I did not agree with the arresting of fifty+ anti monarchy protestors . Suppose that might have been sorted with out arrests and holding them for 16 hours)
I loved the Coronation Live performance on Sunday night, would have been good to have seen extra of Take That and fewer of Lionel Richie and Steve Winward – however that is simply me! The drone mild show was unimaginable – simply how do they try this?
I had my first whippy 99 ice cream of the 12 months at a automobile boot sale nevertheless it wasn’t all that particular so will not hassle once more from that ice cream van.
Two higher purchases have been made. One was a tray of 6 gherkin vegetation. (6 is 5 greater than I’ve room for thus might want to discover a completely different place to develop them!) I appear to recollect attempting them from seed myself one 12 months and ended up with not lots of gherkins – a bit foolish pickling one after the other! Hopefully 6 vegetation will give me a number of extra.
I additionally got here house from the boot-sale with this for the backyard. Slightly happy with him and stood him among the many vegetation however then I learn he should not be straight onto the soil so I discovered a small sq. slab from out the entrance and now he’s between the Girl’s Mantle wanting good.
Again Tomorrow
