| This good looking chap was exploring the garden this morning. |
Toni and I haven't been this warm since we left South Africa in 2006. It's not exceptionally hot but has been around 25°C every day for more than a week, much warmer and dryer than we're used to. It's really lovely to be able to dress so lightly and live more outdoors, but it does mean Toni's hayfever has flared up again - something that was mostly absent when we lived in the UK.
With the hotter weather we do our gardening in the cool mornings and late evenings; the advantage is that the grass has slowed down so we aren't mowing as often anymore. The vegetable are all coming on wonderfully and the garden still surprises us with new flowers all the time.

With the ever changing world our plans have shifted again (and probably will a couple more times...). B&T's ferry on Tuesday has been cancelled and re-booked for the 15'th so we have delayed our UK crossing until we can hand the property and cats back, and will then work out what happens next. At the moment the UK quarantine rules mean we will have to isolate for 14 days when we enter the UK, not that easy when you no longer have a home.
Farming life has carried on through the lockdown and we really enjoy watching the activities from the house (and seeing how many farm vehicles the neighbour uses for his different tasks). It really is amazing how much hard work goes into making sure we have food on our plates.
Die tuin is absoluut pragtig! Die huiseienaars is regtig bevoorreg om julle daar te hê. Doodseker hulle sal julle harde werk waardeer!
ReplyDeleteDankie, ja hulle het gisteraand teruggekom so ons kan nou die tuis terughandig en begin dink aan sport maak.
