T sTands for This and ThaT

Hi Everybody!

Hope your weekend was good. Here we had too much excitement for my liking, more about that later!

For Alison's summer country challenge at AJJ I have a vase of sunflowers. There are lots of 'trust' fields here where you can cut your own sunflowers and put the money in a tin, and these fields always mean summer to me:

This evening we will be celebrating Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link ParTy, so here a warm welcome to all of the ladies of the T Gang who visit here.

I saw more nice things in the shops here, I would like that goose mug!

I baked a hazelnut cake, cut yourself a slice:

And my drink is frothy coffee, as always:

Yesterday my neighbour sent me a WhatsApp message and told me that there was a huge hole in the road where we live. He sent me these three photos: 

They did some emergency repairs yesterday and closed the street to traffic, and then carried on on Sunday. These pics were taken Sunday midday. And lots of people were cycling through the road to get photos, although the road was closed.

Draining water - the damage was probably caused by the stream, which flows under the road. Normally it's just a trickle, but it was very full when it rained so much:

I know this is just something very small after the damage and destruction that has happened in other places, but it's strange feeling when the road in front of your home opens up. We are all very fortunate that we normally live in a secure environment, and the events of the past days show how quickly things can change. So many are homeless and have lost everything.

And to finish on a lighter note I have a funny for you:

Have a great day, take care, 

and thanks a lot for coming by!
