Up the Villa!

Fantastic match - I've learnt everything I know about football from Th, aged 8.9yr.
He is ecstatic!

To get back to reality, summer has arrived!
Forget the temperatures, the swallows arrived on Friday and have been swooping above the top lawn and checking out the nest in the stable.
Time to move the bikes moved to the outside walls and put some paper on the floor.
I thought I heard the cuckoo today, but not sure

A busy few days, an indulgent day on Friday, pottering around Solihull for a few hours before picking up J and Th from school, tea etc.
Saturday was spent in the garden, which is looking quite good, plenty of work still to do on the borders. A suggested trip to the cinema with a friend was put off due to tiredness and aching limbs - I should have had a hot bath  to ward off the latter!
Sunday, walked to church then aimed to walk to Furnace End, to the car boot sale, but gave up and just enjoyed the walk home across the fields.
An afternoon in the garden then friends for a scrummy dinner of roast chicken followed by lemon sponge pudding - the one that separates into a lemon curd base and sponge above.
Today, I delivered mini sponge cakes to friends around about before picking J and Th from school....
I had to shop at JS on the way home, having a "Spend £20 save £3" voucher -salad for dinner and some bottles of "Taste the Difference" wine - always a good bet.

Hot again tomorrow, a day in the garden.
Brill!
