Nuts

Apparently aspersions were being cast (by Mr B) at my almond trees at the weekend (as to their identity and their ability to fruit) so I was delighted to see this big fat almond today (there are two, which isn't going to make much marzipan, but is definitely a start).

In other news, much work, some digging out of tree roots, and the car started overheating. At least many car's worth of practice with this means I know how to deal with it.

And tonight some Suits. Though the joy is a bit taken out of it after a major spoiler in the newspaper this weekend.

And a new conspiracy theory about our neighbours and a tree....

If I haven't mentioned it, the nightingales (three of them) and the golden oriole are back. So our summer birds are all here.

Tomorrow, CarbBoy has to be a Roman (toga and everything) for a Latin show. So we had post-bedtime toga tying lessons dredged up from somewhere in my insalubrious past.
