What a slow week that was.

After a long, slow week I am finally back to normal.  No more waddling instead of walking,  no need to stretch out before putting on socks in the morning,  just a slight dull ache at the base of my spine in the evening.  But nothing to stop me getting on with the pea planting and having a go at the weeds........except that the weather has decided to change for the worse.  Not raining yet, although it's forecast for tomorrow, but  decidedly nippy out with a cool breeze.  Nice for walking but not for weeding.  I can't think of much worse than kneeling on damp ground in a shady place with a cool wind blowing.

Had 2 long walks today, first this morning was our normal circuit up to the fuente and back although without any orange picking today as there are still 3 litres of juice in the fridge.  Then later on we went back up there to show some visitors where the fuente was.  It's only just off the GR7 walking route but isn't signposted.  The overflow from the deposito and fuente run across the GR7 but unless you know where that water is coming from, you wouldn't think to go and look.

Back in time for lunch and then Monty and Pip curled up on the lounge rug in the sun.  Well, it was almost sunshine, more of a weak hazy bit of warmth coming through the window.  Enough to keep them happy and warm though!
