Things That Gladden The Heart

Simple pleasures. Home grown rocket, lettuce, spring onions, as part of the salad with a wonderful honey and mustard dressing finished with a home made raspberry sorbet. Not long before we'll have beetroot, tomatoes, chives and new potatoes we can add to the plate. HID has done wonders under lockdown to get so much food growing
 
who'd have though a bit of rain was so nice, been scorching here for the last 2 months, was on on the bike this moring along the canal, started to drizzle... it was lovely, soo cooling.

no doubt i will be posting in a day or so in RI about it raining:ROFLMAO:
 
I have just learned that competitions are now running at my club
The 1st 2 only had 6 players in each
I plan to hopefully play at the weekend - cold (i.e 1st striking since late Feb)
Although a golf post i'm placing it here - as the sad outcome of such folly may gladden your hearts :ROFLMAO:
 
Putting on a pair of shorts that I haven't worn since last year (they have been washed) and finding a €5 note in the pocket. However, I don't think I will be spending it abroad for a while yet.
 
We've just had to spend a packet refurbing the pebble-dash exterior of our house (its Arts and Crafts so pebble-dash is what should be). You stand and look and it looks real nice and the house no longer looks like a 'dooer-upper' - but you wonder - was it really worth it. Then a neighbour knocks on the door and says - your house looks really nice - we really like what you've had done - can you tell us about the folks who did it.

And that does rather gladden the heart as I could play Dumbarnie Links until I was sick of it given the cost :)
 
Seeing not one, but two sizeable hedgehogs in our garden last night.
Great fun watching them isn't it. We've a few that come over the course of a few hours and got a couple of houses tucked away. I know they've been used before but don't want to look as if there are young in there I have read mum will simply abandon them if the "nest" gets disturbed
