 I’m pecking this out on the iPad in the kitchen again, but I have noted with interest and gratitude what you say (comments yesterday) about increasing brightness and font size on the laptop.

   Another sunny day. My sister and her husband, cruising the Western isles, are having duller weather, and something of a noisy young crowd aboard which is not a problem C. and I ever had on a Majestic Line cruise.

   C. came to see me this morning, looking very summery. She is off to Sicily tomorrow, happy woman. 

   Helen and David and Fergus just popped in, home from their weekend down souff. It’s good to know they’re back.

   No knitting. Shameful. There may be time for a long row or two before bed. I’ve had a nice time re-reading Traitor’s Pitse.

   Wordle: three for me. A distinguished score, except that Rachel scored two. My starters gave me two adjacent greens and a brown vowel. I struggled for quite a while, unable to think of any qualifying word or even a Jean-word. Nothing. Then I thought of one and it was right,

.   We were spread out. Mark was a fellow-three. Four for Ketki. Five for Alexander and Thomas.  Four for Theo in DC. Five for Roger in the Western Isles.

    Hot and sunny again here in MD. More fireworks but more in the amateur style.
    I still don't know what they are celebrating, so I will just assign it to my own preference.

    I don't much like reading multiple books by the same author in a row, so I'm slipping in other books in between. So of course now I'm behind on the club reading. I think I'll give Flowers for a Judge a miss, since you didn't like it much, and move on to Dancers in Mourning.

    Oh dear, I've just read Kate's essay on Flowers for the Judge and as I feared I now feel I have/want to read the book! For one thing, it's about publishing, which is where I spent the first half of my working life. I'm going to have to speed up on both my reading and my knitting if I'm to stand a chance of keeping up.
