Wednesday

The pools in the cutting still have black soot at the bottom and Hetty will never learn that if she paddles, a shower follows.

Rain stopped play at just gone one so I've come in for lunch but hopeful of another session in the garden this afternoon.

Henry's flight should land at 18.25 if air traffic control allows. When we last flew from Belfast, our flight was delayed because the plane was coming from Portugal and French ATC were not playing ball. So fingers crossed. I cannot wait to see him!
