Slightly cooler...or rather slightly less hot!

 This morning was fresh...it may have even rained a little overnight. Looking at the forecast today was to be the coolest of the week. thanks to a light breeze from the northwest. 

The usual two bus journey..and straight back again as by 11 it was beginning to get hotter. Ayr is a couple of degrees warmer than home! It must have reached mid 20s there.

A relaxing hibernating afternoon, with the bread maker gently churning in the kitchen.

I've changed the recipe from 50:50 white and wholemeal, now using 50:25:25....white. wholemeal wheat and wholemeal rye flour.

So far that is making a tasty and nice textured loaf.

Gardening after supper...a little more fruit picking then beginning the job of restraining the thug of a laurel bush ( tree??!!) which is hanging over the fence, compost bin and kilnshed.  Work was brought to a halt by the midgies!! 

Then sitting in the front garden while I aired the house and watched the sunset

starlings lining up on the ridge before roosting under next door's roof tiles

my meado wew!
