an early start...

I think the neighbourhood birds were all camped in the tree by my bedroom window this morning ! The noise of the "dawn chorus" at 5.15am was unbelievable ! If birds could say" I'm so excited, this is going to be a great day" that's exactly how they would sound ! I was not impressed, far too early for me ! Once awake, I could also hear the milking machines working in the milking sheds next door... Such a peaceful life, here in the country !!

Had some friends in for a meal last night. It was a perfect summers evening and we were able to sit outside. The garden is looking so pretty at the moment, the roses are particularly good this year. We had a very wet spring and this seems to have set the garden up well for the summer..

DGD Phoebe was 16 yesterday. She Skyped last night, it was lovely to see her on her Bday, we'll be up there with them all, this time next week. The Boarding school grandchildren in UK.are returning to HK for the holidays. Two of them are already there the other two follow next week. DGD Lucy, had a front tooth broken in half by a hockey ball last week (her mouth guard was in her pocket...) so that's the first thing that will have to be fixed !

Looks as if the day is going t be hot. Yesterday I had the sheets washed,dried and back on the bed in twenty minutes !

Enjoy the day.
Marion.
