Hm. Busy but useful...
K&K set off at 7.20 this morning, heading for Wotton-under-Edge: Kai decided he wanted to walk a little of the Cotswold Way. Apparently it was gorgeous - sunny, if decidedly windy. They got as far as Dursley, then Kai decided he fancied a beefburger - from Weston-super-Mare...
[shrugs] Such is the beauty of FirstDay SouthWest bus tickets. They hopped on the Briz bus at Dursley, then changed to the X1 (with me checking timetables online), arriving at Weston about 5.30. Not sure if it's clear here, but that sand in the foreground isn't out of focus, it's loose and blowing in long snaky ribbons across the hard-packed sand underneath. Fascinating effect, although it's best in RL.
Kai had his cheeseburger (he can has cheeseburger. His cheeseburger, he lubs it) and they headed home. Didn't get here 'til quarter to nine, just in time to catch Sleepy Hollow (which Kai hadn't yet seen) on TV. They're both asleep up there now, knackered! Lie in tomorrow.
Ken woke me before they left, and I dozed until 8.30. Then it was up, two machine loads through, tend greenhouse, feed tomatoes and water everything else, clear the scale insect from the orchids and feed and water them (and I have another flower spike coming! I think it might be on the same plant as the last one though - I have two almost identical and can't remember...), a little client site stuff then the rest of the day (and evening) went on more research/writing. Quite pleased with it, though it's taken a very long time. Always the same when it's something I don't know anything about though.



Late spring in Arno's Park - gorgeous.
Tired now.
