| Taking the table, tea tray and the necessary dog for tea on the bench. |
Had a cup of tea of the bench today with my daughter and my mother. It's now five years since I unveiled it for my 50th birthday.
It was a lovely day for it, lots of sunshine and clouds and the occasional rain shower. We thought we had timed it well, but a shower came after 15 minutes.
I have realised that I have sited the bench so that it is always in shade except for very late in the evenings or during the winter. This suits me fine. I prefer a shady place to have a little sit down in the summer.
I intend to give the bench a good clean and scrub and then to spruce it up with some linseed oil I bought recently.
