All the good things

The morning started like some kind of apocalypse. No internet, broken boiler, discovery that my new phone isn’t just with a poor signal provider, the mobile data just isn’t working (it needed no internet for that to actually dawn on me). But now, all the above are now successfully resolved with little effort so here are all the other good things:

1. I haven’t seen a live snail for about 3 days. Nematodes and my ruthless elimination policy appears to have reduced the population. Have recklessly planted out the last two survivors of the courgette/ squash massacre. No idea what plants they actually are.
2. Swimming in the sea this evening. Swam 10 lengths of proper heads down swimming. Length is obvs the distance between those groynes (not the little pontoon thing in the middle) It was pleasingly exhausting.
3. Have added passion fruit plant to plum and apricot tree plans
4. Emailed the tree removal man requesting he return to work immediately
5. Daisy has taken cheap alcohol to sit in Amelia’s garden with “the gang”
6. I’m sat in our garden in the last of the hot sunny days. I hope it all comes back soon, it’s been a proper pleasure and joy.
