A Short Dry Spell

We've had a number of dry days. The weekend was beautiful. On Sunday, we went to Hebden Bridge and moseyed around. We took Dot with us. We bought several pieces of treen at a flea market down by the canal- and I surprised and gratified myself by haggling the price down (a little) just as they do on Bargain Hunt. On our return I squirted Dot's paths with weed-killer.  Monday was patchy, yesterday overcast but warm. I sat out in the yard until past eight o'clock last night finishing a novel.  Earlier I'd clipped the hedge.
