What Time Is It And What Are You Doing?

Just finished watering our garden.
Now resting after another hard day at work.
Last night tennis, tomorrow night tennis. After work.
Maybe I am getting too old !

Sunday
Today played 2 hours of Padel Tennis.
Then relaxed in the garden, reading.
Then watched the Rome tennis Final.
Now out to water the garden, which takes over an hour every night

My wife and I have picked a load of strawberries from the garden, done this for five days running. At least two large bowfuls each night.
So early as well.
So pleased the hard work is coming off.
Then watered the garden, then for a walk.

Bet those strawberries taste divine, had supermarket ones yesterday and to say they lacked taste is an understatement !

1:59 PM here in Belleville,Illinois. Listening to Epic Symphonic Rock: Iron Maiden The Trooper by Epic Cello Quartet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swXle... on YouTube while wading through email and trying to catch up on GR.
Sunny, breezy, lovely today.
Four mile walk first thing this morning
In and out of the garden, reading in the garden, coming in watching some tennis, then outside picking more strawberries and our first Jersey New Potatoes.
More music on my I pods, up loading
4.00 to play two hours mixed doubles tennis.

Did you see that article on BBC? The horticulturists in the UK are going to test home remedies for slugs.

11.45am and just back from a walk where we bought 1 doz extra large free range eggs from the little guy up the road where we pay into an honesty box nailed to the gate post - £3.50.
We also got 2 bunches of Cornish asparagus (£1.75 each), so will be having a lovely dippy egg breakfast tomorrow with steamed asparagus! Then asparagus soup for breakfast on Saturday.

I'm one of those people who can't eat asparagus w/o unfortunate aromatic consequences in the water closet, to put it mildly.

Sorry a little quite lately.
Wife in hospital for four days, now at home.
And getting better, on antibiotics and pain killers with an inflamed lower stomach problems.
And as always busy in garden, and watching playing tennis with the better weather, and at the moment looking after the wife!

Sean: Sorry to hear about your wife being in the hospital. Having been in my hospital during the Triduum, I can testify to the fact that long hospital stays suck.
