Voting day today! We had a postal vote so we voted a couple of weeks ago! I'll be staying up all night to hear the results - looking forward to it!

Not a very nice day today! I drove into Kendal first thing and got wet walking around town! Then went to pick Sheila up and we drove to Janice's. We were supposed to be going walking but it was too wet so we went to Beetham Garden Centre and had a nice lunch. It brightened up in the afternoon! I went back into town and then to knitting. Lou and Anne turned up so really nice to see them. I've crocheted these coasters and felted them.

Horrible weather this morning!! I went out into the garden and took up the groundsheet, dug the soil over and planted the plants that I've had sitting around for over a week! I got a bit wet and muddy but good to get everything into the garden. I planted a magnolia, clematis, lavatera and a couple of other shrubs, four achillea plants, three fuscia bushes, some geraniums and some aubretia plants. Hope they all grow!

Fraser and I drove to Millthrop, parked up and walked through and around Sedbergh and back along the river - a lovely walk! We went to Askrigg in the evening for a meal with Kate and Dennis - a lovely evening too!

Not a very nice day here today! So - I had a tidy-up in my spare room and I'm throwing lots of wool away - lots of acrylic stuff that I will probably never use. I'll take it to Age UK next week.

We went to collect the campervan from Ings first thing this morning. Came home and did some sewing - finished the bag I started yesterday!

A nice sunny day today but a bit cold. Phoned Yvonne this morning to wish her a happy birthday and spoke to Steve too. Phoned Beryl to thank her for the letter. Started making a bag from the fabric I bought when Susan was here.
