Gladioli

Since it was me who drew Mr A's attention to the pollen dusting the gladioli petals, I don't feel bad about blipping the same thing, but less zoomed in (because my camera can't do that...).

A pleasant if sedentary Saturday. My exercise was on the spinning bike, so even that was mainly sitting down, and the rest of the day drifted past with smells of lamb slow cooking wafting out of the kitchen. Mr A was preparing one of his specials for G and L, who came for dinner. Lovely to see them, and great to get back to enjoying one of life's great pleasures - sharing food with friends.

The weather was perfectly decent, and we had the door open to the balcony pretty much all day and all evening.
