The most amazing peonies ever!
Sean bought me these for our anniversary (21 years of marriage!) last Thursday and they have blown me away. So so beautiful and massive!

That was worth the 35°C scorchio walk to the post office this afternoon.
Wasn't sure if they would make it back unmelted.
But they did and they are lush!
Hiding the 4th one for me on another hot day!

Loving the dappled sunlight in the park
Even if it is bonkers hot!

Time for a book in the garden I think.

What are you reading?

I just finished listening to Eddie izzard read his autobiography. Which I loved.
Starting Bob Mortimer's trilogy next.

And on my kindle I have the gingerbread bakery bit of easy trashy romance after two modern thrillers!
Claire Mackintosh it's not what you think and Gillian Macallister caller unknown
Both were brilliant. But I needed a less stressful read next!

Taking a couple of days away from the studio.(Not leaving the house!)
It's gonna be ridiculously hot here this week.
Starting by attempting some creative play in the garden before the heat kicks in.
How is it where you are?
