I daren’t mention sun streaming in and washing on the line… 😦 😦 It seems very regional because Jude’s at the beach this morning!

I knew you would be in glorious sunshine!!
Think you might be right on regional. Mum has only just seen the rain arrive, so hope Jude doesn’t get caught out or did I see she is actually in Surrey? If so not sure they will make it to beach, there again may be a great time to go after some of the recent craziness as no-one else will be there!

Weekend with the daughter. Everyone going crazy in the heat flocking to the beaches so I’m sure there will be a spike and then we might get lock down again and I won’t be able to travel. Plus tourists back in Cornwall next week. All too soon.

Quite possibly you may acquire a Q on the new keyboard 😉 Yep, good luck. Especially if it has a Portuguese keyboard, Qs or no Qs. I never got my head round the French one.
