A lazy day on the island

Well, I'm on holiday...
A leisurely breakfast with today's paper, a short stroll round the village to see what's open, what's new, what's still the same. The pubs are quite busy, or rather, given the need to maintain distances, the pubs tend to be full up without actually being busy. But there are a couple of cafés where we should be able to find lunch, not to mention a stand outside the mead factory offereng crab sandwiches. The former shop is scaffolded, and a sign in the window says 'reopening soon' (I hope this is true). The castle is already fully booked for the week, but we have a slot to visit the priory tomorrow. It seems to be a good year for poppies:
I don't remember there being poppies in that meadow, and wonder if someone planted them deliberately, but I like the effect.
Home to lunch, more newspaper, a book and a cup of tea, and it's time to cook dinner already! Where did the day go?
