Today has been a good day. The postman rang the bell around 9.30 and delivered an eagerley awaited parcel. It was my new knitting bag from the lovely Sally at lifecovers. Sally produces her items in beautiful Scotland so has lots of inspiration all around her.

I'm so pleased with it; it's even better than in the photos -

Sally was able to personalise it with 'Susie's bag' embroidered on the handle -

I spent the morning in the garden watering, tidying and planting out. We have been growing a few veggies here in the UK and we have peas .....

.....runner beans.....

.....garlic, carrots, onions and salad leaves.....

.....and I put the strawberries, with some parsley and dahlias, round the lamp post.....

  The afternoon was impossibly hot and humid so we had a lazy break in the shade with lemonade and something to read!!!!
