Our first Day Lily has bloomed today and there are lots of buds to come.
I bought the clematis, Lady Betty Balfour ,many years ago and it has struggled. Suddenly it’s reaching to the top of the yew tree. I don’t think it had the right label on it as it doesn’t look like the Lady we once had in our previous garden. 
I have just finished a most enjoyable read. The salesperson at Waterstones last Friday suggested I might like this one set in Cornwall. I had already bought our books but had enough points for this one to be free so I didn’t resist and, boy, am I pleased that I did get it. It’s funny, clever, rattles along with delightful characters that are so alive and is a really good mystery. I read it in two days and didn’t do much else! I really can recommend it, even if you don’t get it free. (Book buddies J and H, it’ll be available for the borrowing!)
There is a second novel coming in October, a series to watch I’m thinking. Any of you already read this one?
