In exactly three weeks the farmers two sons and a group of their mates head off to the US for the World Cup. The younger boy finished his bac exams yesterday. He now has to wait three whole weeks for the departure date. The farmers wife is steeling herself for the fact that there will only be one topic of conversation at the dinner table for the rest of this month. Three weeks can pass by very slowly when you're seventeen ... or possibly even more slowly if you're the mother of a seventeen year old football fan. The church elder stops to tell us he's seen half a dozen yellowhammers down by the heron pond. This year they are, sadly, on the red list.
The election results were as expected and the 'grim drubbing' duly took place. The Liberal candidate in these rural and staunchly unionist parts doubled his majority.
'The Font' observes that on our recent trip to China the coffee was uniformly good. Not once were we served a bad cup. The same cannot be said about Scotland. At the trendy cafe we are served two cups of something that manages to be acrid and palate searingly astringent in equal measure. The students, who start exams today, seem happy with this caffeine laden assault on their senses. After three sips we quietly leave.

Not a bad price increase on the strawberries, I hope the tomatoes are good - it is a little early in the season for flavor.
