I'm not a football fan and intend to spend the next few weeks avoiding it 😁
we had a lot of rain overnight and it was quite windy to, with the rain we also had this morning my poor peonies flowers took a battering. I went to the local theatre with a friend for a matinee performance f a play within a play where the cast start off a member down during a performance of the importance of being Ernest and 'borrow' a member of the audience by the end of the play at one stage the cast are are all members of the audience as one by one the real performers need replacing. It was very funny I'm just glad I wasn't picked I would have declined.
lamb and salad wrap for lunch. I left my car at my sister and was invited to dinner when I got back there, little one and her mum where there and I was instructed to play as soon as I got there, no time for a cuppa 😁

Still windy this morning, but at least the rain has stopped for the moment, I do need to get my broad beans planted ASAP.
Expecting DS some time this morning for Father's Day visit, so I'll take the opportunity to rope him in to sort out a heavy, wonky, plant pot. That is beyond my capabilities these days.
Lunch, unsure due to DS visit, not expecting to go out for lunch or anything but some eatable goodies may arrive
Dinner, the other thick on offer Morries pork chop, with frozen chips & maybe beans.
Last night's twin chop was excellent, so a repeat is hoped for.

Good morning everyone, Rain again today. Pooch sitting Frank for a couple of nights as DS1 and DIL2B are off to see the Foo Fighters tomorrow. Apart from that not much is happening. CFO tonight as DS2 is going out for dinner with his Dad. I've a tub of chicken & chorizo stew defrosting for dinner. Bits and bobs of LOs for lunch.
It is nice and sunny now, quite a change from this morning.
I had air fried potato wedges and Quorn pieces for brunch. I need something green for dinner. I have a bag of mangetout in the fridge so I might do a noodle stir fry for dinner.
I usually enjoy the football during the World Cup/Euros, but I don't watch it any other time. I used to like tennis, but got bored of it.
Me too, I enjoyed
the Switzerland/Hungary match it was much more entertaining than the previous
nights.
We've had really
heavy rain all morning so the run-off from the fields into the river is making
the sea a bit mucky.
Feta &
pomegranate salad with a couple of crispbreads for lunch. Pan fried turkey
steak, cabbage & peas for tea, I'll probably do a sauce of some kind, not
quite sure what yet.

Has been a much better day than forecast here, this afternoon was beautiful 🌞
So, washing has been line dried and I’ve been out for a little cycle plus done a bit of deadheading in the garden. I’ve also stripped and remade the bed, dusted and hoovered and done a mountain of washing up 🙃
Roast celery and chickpea salad with soft boiled egg for lunch. Just had a yummy potato, chorizo and sweetcorn hash topped with crispy fried egg and sriracha, served with garlic sourdough toast 😋
