Cosmos

I bought a few cosmos from a village sale ages ago.  This one is fairly tall and has a few buds on - one used yesterday with the droplet of water.  Today we are now dry after early rain,  and on this flower I see a teeny spider hiding on the left petals and a bug of sorts on the right!   The sun is trying hard to peek through the clouds but not really succeeding.
Went for a lovely paddle in the pool today and enjoyed the Jacuzzi too for a while.  
Coffee and chat before heading back home.  
Going to spend another hour out in the weed zone..... Front bit still needs serious attention!
The Quiz and supper last evening was most enjoyable. We had the most fun but ended up being Atlas, holding up the others!  Only a few points behind but behind we were!
