Tulips
Firstly, many thanks for all the hearts for my blip yesterday. They were, of course, not for me but for Captain Tom, who I understand has now raised over £32m for the NHS. Now to today.
The plan:
5.55pm: Pour drink
6.00pm: Facetime with good friends of ours
6.30pm: Grill trout; steam new potatoes; grill mushrooms
7.00pm: Eat dinner
The reality:
5.55pm: Pour drink
6.00pm: Facetime with good friends of ours
6.30pm: Pour another drink and continue Facetime
7.00pm: Lots of laughter. Still on Facetime. Another drink anyone?
7.15pm: All realise we meant to eat a while ago. Finally decide to stop Facetime.
7.30pm: Decide trout, new potatoes and mushrooms will still be fine tomorrow. Find something quick to eat. Decide it was a lot of fun and we should do it again next week.
And the tulip? Well, I've always thought they were a bit of a waste of space as I thought they just drooped and didn't last. But these are going strong; I first blipped them on 12th April and they had been in bloom a few days then, and they are still looking rather magnificent. I am impressed.
