Thursday 10th July - more scurry scurry music

 There was watering the garden this morning, and deheading a rose bush, and making a start on deadheading lavender and picking rather manky looking broad beans,

There was a piano lesson plus our usual putting the world to rights, or to what we two consider to be right,

There was lunch (sausages, boiled potatoes and green veg medley)

And then there was tennis... I gave up on the first match as both women were 'shouters', but watched the second. 

Fast, hot, sweaty, running and turning and twisting and hurtling round the court... how can they keep it going?

So I've chosen scurry scurry music; Schubert Impromptu in E flat. It's almost too hot to listen to it;

  1. Sounds like a satisfactory day!
    I can't say I'm a big fan of tennis. Glad you got to enjoy one match

    1. We enjoy watching singles. I can't say we're fans of any other sports, although we watch quite a bit of Olympics

  3. The Schubert makes me breathless! It is hot here by the sea but with a sea breeze it is bearable. I would hate living in a city at the moment, when we were in London and it was hot I yearned for the sea. How the professional tennis players play in this heat is beyond me. We are living on salads at the moment. Regards Sue H

    1. Luckily our open windows were able to scoop up what little wind there was and direct it through the house yesterday, but it was still too hot to move... how lovely to be near the sea.

  4. I can't bear all the rudeness and swearing that seems to accompany Tennis now.
