1. I’m reading the newspaper in the floor – a very rare occurrence these days, one that I don’t think these cats have experienced before. Tilda is unsure of it but Strange and Kauf take to it right away, stretching across it and biting the pages. A few minutes later Tilda returns and adds her own nibble marks.
2. We play in the garden together: the cats, the chickens and me.
2b. Setting out the pots in clusters.
2c. Pruning overgrown herbs – Tilda leans in to smell the lavender, Little Red the chicken pecks at the sage.
2d. Things that I thought had rotted in the soil last year peek out little green sprouts.
3. I take a punt on something unplanned and it turns out quite pretty. I do hope it survives (though I suspect not).
