Five getting a parking ticket! Believe me, for Bruno Vincent that would be a complicated plot! Most of his are much simpler! :lol:

Spending quality pre-birthday :D time on the beautiful island of Skomer - the weather is heavenly and puffins really do say aaaarrrrrrrrrr! I've bought THE SEA OF ADVENTURE along, of course, and CHIMNEY CORNER STORIES along to "christen", both just right for the location...

Erika and I have just arrived back in Lynton after a wonderful afternoon spent in the company of Julie and Stephen and Nigel and Jane. And this year we didn't have to send the meal back! Great to see Rosie too.

Yes, we had a lovely afternoon, yesterday. Great company and a nice meal and a few drinks in a lovely area in Devon. I think Rosie enjoyed it too, as I saw her secretly giving Nigel a kiss. :lol:

Harvesting my deliciously scented lavender, its done so well thought I'd get it in before the heavens open and it gets spoilt! I love lavender scented linen and pot pourri, plenty for both with the "bumper crop"!
