Keeping Busy

    The guys came today to measure for my new windows. Another cost. Seemingly the existing windows were a botched job with shims added to fill a gap so, an added expense. Hey ho, nobody said it would be a simple straightforward job! Some extra dollars added to an over extended budget.

   Tennis this morning then the ladies over for coffee. That filled the morning. Reading in the afternoon, my new Ann Cleeves book. It's set in Devon so a bit of a change from her usual locations of Shetland and Tyneside. I have ordered another Kate Atkinson novel featuring Jackson Brodie, her rather unconventional private detective. 

   Still hot, 29C, so I had several dips in the pool. No gardening today. Had bruschetta for my lunch, so used up another couple of tomatoes. So good!

  1. It's cooled off here and we're getting rain and some storming.
    It'll be good to get those windows sorted, won't it?

  2. Oh dear about the additional costs for the windows - hopefully no more hidden costs!! The weather is forecast to break on Sunday - oh we need the rain. Happy weekend.

  3. Must saying I'm loving this weather. I've been out every day this week, masked. So I will veer on the side of prudence today and stay home although I love being out every day.

  4. Better than being stuck inside in the winter, that's for sure. I almost felt like I was on a Caribbean Island today!
