Summertime .......and the living is easy!!!!!!!!!!

Well, it is the summertime, and we have had some good weather over the past couple of months. I like the fact that when the sun shines people smile a lot more. Everyone seems to be happier and we all go outside a LOT more. [probably because we do not get wet!!]

We had a fun day where I work recently, where people could get their photos taken with the Clydesdale horse, for a £1 - which was going to the local hospice. We managed to raise about £60 ourselves, and I believe the whole day raised over £2000 for the hospice. It was a lovely sunny day, with a cooling breeze and everybody enjoyed themselves -- including the horse who really likes people, especially children.



This is a photo taken towards the end of the evening. I had come out of our office and could hear voices on the lawn next to the building, when I looked around the corner this was my view. And it appeared as if the dogs were talking

[It was just because it was still warm and they were panting and moving their mouths - their owners were sitting on the benches which were hidden by the hedge!]

The garden is looking great as well

at the moment with lots of purple

flowers in bloom at the moment - Aqueliga

and some globe flowers too,

this is a close up of one of the

huge heads.
