On the Verge

I don't know where they came from but all of a sudden we have ox-eye daisies growing in the verge by our driveway. They are so cheery.

They line the Ashby Road approaching Junction 23 of the M1 near us. They don't look quite as healthy as in the past two years possibly because we hadn't had any rain since March until last week.

I took Basil out in the Basil-wagon, (yet to be revealed to you), in the afternoon. I'd bought it online but there were no directions for assembly in the box. Our neighbour David very kindly put it together for us. Why did I buy it? Basil is developing arthritis and getting tired at the end of long walks. So he gets both a walk and a ride now when required. We got as far as Garendon Estate off the Ashby Road today. As soon as I got on to the estate, I was afflicted  with hay fever.
