There ain't no cure for the summertime blues

It's a beautiful bright morning, and I seem to have caught [personal profile] durham_rambler's cold: my head feels as of it has been stuffed with cotton wool (with added sneezing).

This rather takes the edge off the e-mail that arrived this morning, cancelling tomorrow's lunch date (because of emergency plumbing): that saves us atruggling with the decision of whether we ought to cry off (and yes, I think we ought).

Yesterday we visited the Botanic Gardens: I have never seen so many students there. Presumably it's the season: I don't think I've ever been there when the rhododendrons are in bloom, either. I'm not satisfied with any of the pictures I took of them, though - too much sunshine, I don't know how to handle it. This was the only picture I really liked:

Living in a forested area, don't get me going on %^&^! rhododendrons- one of the worst invasive species ever!

Hope you're feeling better-er soon.

I have booked for this year's Classics Summer School (even though they gave me Covid last time!)
