Sunset walk on Deal Pier.
We’ve had builders at the house for three weeks. This was the first day it rained, Monday the 14th, in all that time. Things messy for a couple of weeks yet I should think.

Toot toot, we’re off to London Town for lunch with the Misses Price (or is it Miss Prices?) and their significant others. Back later, about 300 pounds lighter I expect. 🤦

A walk from Deal to Sandwich. Diggers are heaping up the beach near our house, an annual process to see off higher tides, and at the other end of the journey, the reed beds whisper that winter is almost over. Me? I need to go the barber, sharpish.

Stonehenge today from the A303 on the way home from family biz in the West Country. Deborah and I can both remember when it was possible to walk right up to and among the stones and even climb on them. 1970s. Scandal if it happened now, though you still can at Amesbury, close by. Maybe not climb.

Hop rhizome has arrived. Will plant in a week or, in the bin. Should work okay if you change the compost every year or two. Harvest in September, all with hundreds of other growers.
