Cats!

Aduro follows us up the Land whenever we go anywhere, and then waits until we come back (having learnt a lesson when she went too far once). If we come back another way, we have to go up and tell her we're home; she'll wait for hours otherwise.

And then walks so close in front of me that I can't really walk properly, all the way down to the house.

Been this way into town twice today - to the market this morning, and to church this evening.

Platinum jubilee celebrations in Britain. One hundred days of war in Ukraine - worth reading Max's account, and maybe writing something to encourage him to keep strong...

Gratefuls:
- stocked up with Maria's fresh fruit and veggies; peaches are just coming into season
- the beautiful evening light today
- poached eggs and salmon on Mike's bread for tea
