On the steps

Compost, Turtle Wax Colour Magic, an inner tube or two, some apple green ink and a sketchpad were the outcome of this morning's shopping expedition.

It's now raining which should help the plants I put in the newly constructed planter this morning.

Nice cup of tea and see what the rest of the day holds.

Son #2 is sitting on the steps of St George's - a fine Georgian building which serves as a concert venue, just off Park Street, Bristol.

Both the boys are great company. Sometimes it's nice to do something with them one at a time. You see a different side of them. This morning it was a bit of Son #2 time.
