There was a certain amount of sun today but on the whole it's been cooler with more clouds than sun.
My main job of the day was to use up the remaining paint on one of the outside walls of the utility room. It worked out that there was exactly enough to finish that wall. Of course there is still plenty left to paint including the whole of the side of the house (the bit people can't see from the street.) I shall do a section at a time and hope to get it all done before winter.
The next major task was to venture into the loft. Some stuff needed to go back up there and other stuff to come down. It was so hot up there as I sorted through boxes of my mother's photos the majority of which had no names or dates which is very frustrating.
I also did some gardening including moving two plants to where I took out the artemisia. The white lavender was not looking too healthy. I'd cut it back after flowering but hadn't done much in the way of watering. I'll see what it's like next spring.
As I sat outside recovering from my exertions I spotted two empty dinghies by the reef. Was this a Marie Celeste moment?
Nope, just a couple of snorkelers. The guy above even had a light on his forehead. I wonder what they saw?
The lifeboat went out again this afternoon. It's been a busy week for them.
