Started a potter in the garden, two pots tidied and was all done in. Enjoyed a sit on the garden swing in the light rain. Sofa time with my pal and a new book.

Brilliant! 5🌟.Have got Belsay, the next one in the series to read, but as it’s a Christmas setting I’m going to leave it to the end of the year. Have ordered Berwick which should arrive in September to start the new year. The next book after that is due to be published in 2028 so I will have a wait!

Tearing myself away from the Shackleton series for a while ( it’s hard because they are so engaging). Time to return to DCI Ryan! #CrimeFiction

Discovered this historical fiction series recently, setting is my birth town of Whitehaven, 5 miles down the coast. We get a tall ship or two sailing g into the harbour most years. The Nao Santa Maria sailed into the town at high tide yesterday, Tuesday July 28 at around 11.40am.

Found two critters in the garden. First time we have ever met an Elephant Hawk Moth. The moth should appear next May and looks very beautiful!

Completed a few household chores, husband is out at the old farts club, now sat in a darkened room with two fans going. New book at the ready and a coffee with my wee pal at my side, I’m done! Peace! #Booksky #Fiction #ShortStories

I always enjoy Jeffrey Archer’s writing. The William Warwick series have been great. Let’s see how this one measures up! #Booksky #Fiction #Crime

Need a little light relief, short stories quick read next. #Booksky #Fiction #Shortstories

Feels like it’s taken me ages to read this one. I can’t say I found it an enjoyable read. I found it to be a triggering text and had an overkill of violence. I was glad when I’d finished it. Shuggie Bain had the same depressive impact on me as a reader. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Onwards… #Booksky #Fiction

We had winds and heavy rain last night. Our back garden faces onto the coast and always bears the brunt of the weather coming in off the Irish Sea. Our lovely pot of Delphiniums took a hit. Now in a vase on the window ledge. Didn’t even get a chance to open their buds.

This one seems to have been getting positive reviews on here from what I’ve seen. Have read A man called Ove but otherwise I’ve not explored this author. #Booksky #Fiction

Voila! Found an old soap dish and repurposed too. Added some candles.

Andrea @andreapa.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

This is my biggest container of succulents, I have lots more in other smaller containers. They are all having babies so I looking for more containers to plant up. I have one idea which is to up cycle the outdoor candle holder now it’s used up. Will repost when I’ve got it done.

So my husband has created a lovely fountain in the middle of the garden. Solar powered fountain which lights up when it’s dark in a new pot filled up with water. I love it!
