Spitfire sky

A beautiful Sunday, with a Spitfire blue sky. We simply spent doing light gardening, including some watering then sprawling about on our garden furniture. Just lovely to be relaxing in the sun, and it genuinely felt as if we were on holiday. Talked to Mum and Mas.

Several times today we saw a Spitfire, sometimes with an accompanying light aircraft which I think is filming it, do a Victory roll over the cliffs. There is a business nearby (this one I think) where people can be flown alongside a Spitfire above the white cliffs, and take all the photographs and film you want. On one occasion I saw there were two Spitfires and a light aircraft. The sound of the aircraft's Merlin engine is so distinct it alerts you to look up.

Calliope rushed a seagull at one point but luckily for her, didn't catch it.   

A few random snaps of the back garden. 

One looking back at the house from over the raised beds, the summer house with Calliope, and a shot into the glasshouse, with Lorraine looking at the strawberry trug, with the potatoes growing in sacks to her right.
