Saturday.



At present our garden (admittedly very small) is full of roses in bloom. Today is 'open garden day' in our town  - Highdale, an anagramatic form of its proper name. Plan to have lunch  in  the church, then this afternoon, to go on an open garden crawl. We have thrown our garden open for the last two years,  but this  prevents our exploring our friends and neighbours' gardens, so this year that is what we intend to do. Shall  take the camera along and ask permission to use it.

It has been a wonderful year so far for both garden and wild flowers, surprising really considering the snow and ice we had in North Cornwall. The only thing which seems to have suffered are the palm trees.

With regard to retirement, I seem to be busier than ever these days. The idea of coming to live down here was to do green woodwork crafting and painting, but other things keep getting in the way!I was speaking to a close friend of mine (in her seventies) who owns the Toy museum and shop in Tintagel and also owns some holiday lets, suggesting why doesn't she retire now and 'enjoy' a slower pace of life? To which she replied, what else would I do, this is not just work but also my hobby, I would die of boredom!

Glad you are still making the watch hand pendants, they are beautiful, I always envied Judy's.
Lots of love to you both, Maggie xxx
