A sea of Seapinks

Absolutely scorchio up here today.

Again it was too hot for me in the garden so we schlepped off to the beach for some comfort and fresh air. The Wonder Dog has really been flagging at the house but he soon came into his own after a paddle and a swim.


We're now on day two of the grass cutting and were still not finished, talk about one man and his dog.

As we've not had a chance to use it this year, the greenhouse is providing a lovely display of weeds. The dockens and foxgloves are twice their normal size and weeks ahead of the tougher cousins in the great outdoors. I could win a prize or two for them.

Tonight we're having some specials guests, we think. Olga and the family might be calling later after the last ferry from Harris.

It'll be nice to meet another Blipper.
