I have a system ...

One of my greatest joys and small/huge pleasures in life is cutting my sweet peas and enjoying their scent. Still going strong...it’s been a good year for them this year. Phew! I can very easily take a less successful year as a direct comment on my incapability. I’m sure they don’t mean it.

Spent most of the day doing a submission for my course which is going on relentlessly and determined to break me... https://www.blipfoto.com/entry/2514568980291651539
Hurrah ... late afternoon my friend and her husband called to see if I wanted a swim. I forgot to grab my camera but it was SO exhilarating...huge waves and bright sun.

As I write this I’m watching the Last Night at the Proms and thinking how fortunate I was as a kid that my school was in the catchment area for the Robert Mayer concerts at the Royal Festival Hall.
