The weather is still glorious and I am lapping it up. It really makes you feel alive. Lovely clear blue skies, warming up nicely during the day, but not getting too hot, and cooling down at night, a bit chilly in the morning, but perfect for walking. I hope it lasts a while longer yet. I am certainly going to make the most of it.
We took our younger son out for lunch today and then my husband and I went to visit the Celebration Garden at Ayletts Nursery in St Albans. They have the most amazing Dahlias in these gardens. It was created in 2015 as part of their celebrations for their 60 years as a Nursery and Garden Centre. Its aim was to demonstrate just how versatile and valuable Dahlias can be when planted in a garden, and I certainly think they have achieved that. We were a bit later at going this year and just missed the charming tea and cake tent which I think had its final visitors in the weekend as it has just been taken down.
I've taken loads of photos as usual as it was all just so beautiful, so I hope you enjoy looking at them.

After the gardens we picked up Percy from the Veterinary Hospital where he had been in for his five weekly overnight stay for Chemo. It seems his heart murmur has progressed since his last appointment (where it was first picked up) so that is a little worrying, but we will monitor it. His steroid dose has now been decreased to 1 mg a day, so that is good. They are pleased with his progress. He was pleased to be home, and promptly rushed out in the garden to have a good sniff round.
