How are you?
I've had another super weekend. It was the croquet tournament on Saturday. David & I play with two other couples nearly every year , although we've not done it religiously over the past few - especially when covid was happening, but this year we managed a date which was last weekend.
Have you ever played croquet? It's a really fun outdoor game which uses balls and mallets. The aim of the game is to hit the ball through rings in the grass and finally hit the center post - the first one to do so is the winner. I've not played it very much and am not very good at playing so you can read on to find out where I came - it's not very impressive I have to admit.
Our friends live just up the road so armed with a bottle, a box of beers, some ice and a homemade tortilla we started the 5 minute walk to their house. The weather was not nice, it was VERY windy with gusts every so often that nearly knocked us over - it knocked a glass over. Someone (me) had drunk the contents and I hadn't refilled it .. lol! It was still warm with sunny intervals so I was thankful it didn't rain like it had in the morning.
I ended up wearing this pretty blue tea dress. I've worn it once before to The Ritz and had forgotten about it. When my first choice ended up being too big, I searched through my selection and found it again. It teamed really nicely with my white trainers - fortunately they were the perfect shoe to be playing croquet in.
