Life through the lens...

By ValC

The scent of Summer.

The last day of fruit picking, or so we thought, but John has decided to open for two days next week.
Still a few raspberries left, also black currants, red currants and tayberries.
His wife always grows a  row of sweet peas, which she sells at 80p a bunch.
Some lovely colours, and she always grows ones which have the best perfume.
This year it was one called April in Paris. A strange name for a sweet pea which flowers in July.
A lovely white, washed with mauve. A very delicate colour, and Mr C agreed it had the best perfume.
Going over to our friends for a BBQ tomorrow, and so have bought an extra bunch for F.
At the moment they are filling the house with such a beautiful smell.
