Oh my goodness. Martin has just decided to cut the grass before dinner. He's a very infrequent grass cutter. Which is nice for wildlife, including a virtually resident not our cat, and also the ecosystem. But he still needed to do his first cut of the year. Now underway. It will be many many weeks before the second one 😜

Got my new tablecloth - a William Morris design, thick cotton, newly hemmed to the required size, including overhang - and looking forward to using it soon with my new small folding table for gaming on. Here's what the design looks like.
