All Ears

Suddenly there are lambs everywhere. Not sure what breed these are, but they have what round here are known as 'big lugs'. Possibly they are Cheviots, which would be appropriate, you can see the Cheviot from their field.

I thought that not gadding about so much would mean I'd be whizzing on with the backlog of sewing, gardening and the rest. Well, I did hack back some of last year's perennials, and measured a quilt top (I need to make a backing). But most of the morning was spent FaceTiming Al and admiring Hal's  newly acquired walking skills - maybe tottering would be a better word for them. And after that catching up with emails.

In the afternoon we went to St Boswells, in response to a message from the independent bookshop there. They were reminding people that though they've had to cancel various events, they are still open and in need of customers if they re to stay in business. We couldn't ignore that! So I bought a book, had a coffee and blipped these sheep on the way home.
