Kids and gooseberries

I saw these adorable Saanen kids on a neighbour’s farm. Great time wasters and so pretty and affectionate

Back at The Gables it was time to don my leather gauntlets and pick gooseberries

A friend is coming over later to collect some punnets

Shades of blue in our June garden

Cornflower blue in the garden
Deep blue lobelia in a pot in the pergola
Tiny blue/ purple pansies growing in the cracks in the paving stones at the side of the house
Pale blue Nigella aka Love in a Mist – self seeded everywhere
