A Quiet Rainy Sunday

 


Sunday morning.
Coffee and eggs.
The Archers.
I’ve cut flowers from the garden and set them up in dark corners of the cottage to lift the day

Then
A walk around the village 
The main road is quieter on Sundays  so Dorothy was able to negotiate our way without the usual hysterics.
Few people are about 
I waved at Nick and velvet voiced Linda who were having breakfast at their kitchen table and to gwawr out in her car. But I saw no one else.
Most of the neat gardens are still retaining their colour.
Stan’s deep maroon dahlias look marvellous, and the cheerful rubekkia at Graham’s are still a stand out on High Street…but I did notice that the garden around the hall look a little untidy and overgrown . 
I will see if I can get a few volunteers together to help me tidy it up 

The rain started as soon as we got home. 
That fine rain that soaks you immediately .
I’ve written emails in support of the Pilgrim Church and posted more on the village websites about it, but my back is aching so I can’t sit for long.

Yesterday I ordered a dvd which will, surprisingly will be delivered today ( I thought there was a shortage of delivery drivers) Its a gentle comedy drama called The Intern with Anne Hathaway and Robert DeNero

An Ideal Film for a quiet rainy Sunday

  1. I now have coffee cup envy - the perils of the internet. Is that beautiful coral colour the true colour? Enjoy your Sunday :) x

  7. I think you'll enjoy 'The Intern', it's amusing in a nice, calm, gentle way!
    I was halfway through deadheading the roses in the front garden when the rain started, so I chickened out and came inside to make a tuna loaf for supper this evening! X

  8. I enjoy walking in the rain with the ones I love-we got damp but I prefer it to hot-2 washed so far and grass seeds removed-after a cuppa the others-my teddy is muddy and my thatch is about to be caught and trimmed x

    What a lovely beginning to a relaxing day at home. Hope your back feels better quickly.
    I love to take time on a rainy day to sit in a puddle of lamplight with a good book to read.

    Hugs!

  11. Looked up The Intern...ideal film for a rainy Sunday, I've ordered a copy. Made me feel old, though...surely, Robert de Niro is a young man, with black hair?!

  17. I'm just not a movie person.... I have seen heaps but only incidentally, I have only been to a few when younger intentionally. I prefer books.

  18. Investing online has been a main source of income, that's why knowledge plays a very important role in humanity, you don't need to over work yourself for money.All you need is the right information, and you could build your own wealth from the comfort of your home!Binary trading is dependent on timely signals, assets or controlled strategies which when mastered increases chance of winning up to 90%-100% with trading. It’s possible to earn $10,000 to $20,000 trading weekly-monthly in cryptocurrency investment,just file a complaint with my broker   Mr. Carlos Wilfred. I had almost given up on everything about binary trading and never getting my lost funds back, till i met with him, with his help and guidance now i have my lost funds back to my bank account, gained more profit and I can now trade successfully with his profitable strategies and software!!
