Thirty and Thirty-One

(Not) seasonal reading, particularly as it has felt a little more like summer again today. I have set myself the challenge of reading all four of Ali Smith's seasonal quartet this summer. I've enjoyed the first two - not entirely what I was expecting but definitely attention-holding - but I've decided to have a reading break for my next couple of books. 

The threatened rain didn't ever materialise today (maybe it will over night) so I have managed to get washing out and dried and cut the grass. There was a supermarket trip to pick up an order and one or two bits and two walks for Bailey. I have also been gathering things up and packing to travel over to the west for the first time since Christmas. And all without disconcerting Bailey too much.
