Hop farm festival

Yesterday we went to our local festival and saw some great music. We're meant to be camping but as I'm on chemo are going back and forth. Today hubby looking forward to Bruce Forsyth and me Lucy Rose! My son and friend staying and we've had a call for food rations so making sarnies for them... So rock and roll. Some of yesterday's acts

Floss and the chicks

The chicks are growing so fast. Here they are chilling on a Saturday afternoon on the swingseat in the garden.
I have just started my chemo (by tablet) and all fine so far. Effects are accumulative though so may feel ropey in a few days. Hope everyone is having a lovely (if damp) summer solstice week. We had a barbecue to celebrate it on Wednesday night which was actually sunny here. Kate x

What a lady!

It was tiring just watching the Queens various engagements this weekend let alone having your husband hospitalised as well.
It gave me a whole new perspective on what a state visit must entail.
Hip hip hurray to an amazing and dignified lady. Kate

Jubulations

Here in uk we are having all sorts of celebrations for the queens diamond jubilee. I made these corsages for my daughter and I to wear to our little hamlets party this afternoon now off to paint my finger nails red white and blue. Kate x
