Not a sweet pea but related.   Lathyrus sativus, aka Grass Pea or Chickling Pea.   An easily grown annual, of rather fragile growth so I grow it among other plants that offer it something to cling on to.  The flowers are much smaller than Sweet Peas and lack their scent but make for it with a unique colour.

A quietish day off.   After a visit to the health centre, nothing to report, I did a couple of hours glazing at pottery before lunch.   Another afternoon mixing garden, tennis and Le Tour ... and I may have had a siesta too.   Choir this evening, a new piece, Scarborough Fair arranged in three parts which was a little challenging at times.   I was asked at one stage if I thought I had got it ..... I must have been looking particularly bamboozled and replied "What day is it?" :-)   We got there in the end.   A walk for Meg in the evening cool to round off the day.
