Inertia
The shower has been leaking for years; it is now gushing out and once again water is decorating the ceiling below. Would this and hot weather encourage a crisis that would kickstart H1 into action? Unfortunately not! Two weeks and still counting.... can in hand he is sitting watching the television while I am doing jobs....Are all husbands like this?
The house is filled with flowers-
these from D1 are still doing well after 2 weeks.
Some allwhite, strange smelling, antirrhinum-like garden flowers were bought at Simonburn Village Fair a week ago.
I received another bunch of neighbourly sweetpeas (with livestock & a heavenly perfume).
and finally (photographed when they first arrived) shop-bought roses which have died after only 7 days.
I feel so decadent....afternoon tea at the Marriott with D3
and a faraway marriage celebrated with a garden party lunch which, unusually in Britain, was not spoiled by rain!
Subsequently my 3 days of graft at nonstop gardening may counteract some of the consumption. But today rain stopped play!
