Singing, Caterpillar and Poppy Seed-head

1    Singing with the Suitcases was very satisfying today, our last rehearsal before our gig on Saturday.

2      Mr S found this beautiful caterpillar on the broad beans. He seems only to be eating the leaves so I don’t mind sharing with him!

3    The poppies are finished and the seed heads are quite beautiful!

Maritime Museum, Mud and Umbrellas

1    We spent the morning in the Maritime Museum in Falmouth and Jake had a lovely time.  (Click on any photo for an enlargement.)

2    We drove up to Lanhydrock to have a run around before KJ and the children went on their way. It had been raining hard and the mud was glorious!  These were the last goodbyes! We’ve had some members of the family here for just over three weeks and now they’ve all gone. We’re babysitting in London in only 10 days so it’s not too long before we see this branch of the family again.

3    It amused me at the end of the day to see all the umbrellas drying in the  Lanhydrock National Trust reception office.
