Cactus in a gimp suit. Nikon D7000 |
10th August 2013
It has been nice doing 'nuthing in particular', which makes it feel like a proper holiday and a chance to unwind.
I took the camera and the dog for a walk this morning. I was quite perturbed to notice that the wonderful Cactus (the very first I found; again, I must make a page of Cactii) has been replaced by a modern usurper! This cactus seems to be constrained in a Gimp suit, which is rather distressing.
I was further dismayed to see that the local crop of sweetcorn is doing well; mine is only just reaching knee height back home.
The kids are all settling down well now though; Liz and Millie were displaying iconic teenager behaviour this evening with their heads buried in their phones, yet still able to express their opinions.
