Well it's actually not raining and is a warm and sunny day today - gasp!! How long it will last I do not know - so a summery post is in order today - and seeing as though Andy Murray has made it to the Wimbledon final tomorrow I think some strawberries are in order - my little tribute and my own little way of wishing him luck - I think he's handled the pressure the public have put on him very well - having every move scrutinised must be hard and as far as I'm concerned he has nothing to prove but of course would be thrilled for him if he wins so go Andy!!!! ........ and I hope it doesn't rain in London tomorrow!!!! Enjoy the strawberries fellow bloggers ... sorry I can't offer the real thing ... yummy!

As always I love to read your comments - and when I figure out how I'm going to turn off that silly verification thingy - I know they're a pain!
Sharon, despite knowing all there is to know about GJ's blog I haven't worked out how come I did'nt know about 'The Rambling Artist'.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to receiving the 'Lions of Chester' painting. Great Stuff....keep up the good work.
PW of Birds2blog fame!
Lol thank you Pete, I only started the blog a couple of weeks ago and starting mine has given Gary the push to get his up to date. So glad you like the lions, and good to know they're going to a good home!
DeleteDelightful work Sharon. Your strawberries are full of light and summer (personally I miss both)!
ReplyDeleteWe've actually had a lovely summer's day today - how long it will last is anyone's guess and it wasn't forecast so I didn't make the most of it and go out hiking - typical! Thank you for your lovely comments
DeleteGood enough to eat!! ... I'll be glad when Wimbledon's over, sick of Corn Flakes & Baked Beans! :0)
ReplyDeleteI have to be honest I haven't been following it but heard Andy Murray had made it to the final so will be watching tomorrow - and you go can back to eating a normal diet lol!!!!
DeleteHello Sharon, I´ve been visiting your blog and I see you´re an excelent artist. All paintings are amazing, your animals, pretty portraits,leaves...everything.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. I´m following now. Thanks
They look absolutely delicious, Sharon! A beautiful composition! I love the light falling on them!
ReplyDeleteserh geschmackvoll sehen sie aus, zum "anbeissen"......und es wird sehr schswer für andy muuray, aber es ist zeit, dass endlich mal wieder ein "engländer" wimbledon gewinnt, good luck andy.
