Frog by the river

I made bread first thing before the secretary of our painting association came round again for us to go through the complicated process of requesting subsidies from the department. French administration of course required a large number of documents which we duly assembled. Let’s hope it all goes through now. I then made some preparations for the service which I am taking this weekend. I am having to nurse my salad plants like babies moving the umbrella every few hours to stop them wilting in the heat. At least this frog has the river to hop into. I shall spend some time this afternoon watching Wimbledon semifinals and keeping up with the cricket and the Tour de France.
