For pearls, the best thing you can do is wear them next to the skin; they like human sweat/oils.
I rather like the notion - which only just occurred to me - of a foster-oyster.
My Irish pearls didnât come from oysters
They were made by fresh water mussels
You need mussels if youâre going to âoyst anythingâŚ
Rain. Lots of lovely rain.
Good for the violas in the hanging basket, which otherwise have to be watered every day.
Violas? My favourites. Let it rain, then.

My mother used to call them âlittle face in the grassâ, which she said sheâd heard, as a child, from a Cornish friend and loved.
Genuinely charming, Fishers.

âLittle face in the grassâ is a phenomenon often observed at skool sports days among the clumsier participants. If youâre really lucky you get love-lies-bleeding forra bit as well.
Stretcher party!
Och!

I have been to the Co-op & Tiny Tesco.
I waited 20 minutes for a âbus back, but had a seat at the âbus stop.
The Heavens opened.
Feckinâ Epic & Biblical.
I am very wet
Sigh
Carinthia. xx
Poor soaked Carinthia. The same thing happened here about 4pm (complete with one single clap of thunder) and TFD got caught in it, he also came home drenched. It had been bright and sunny 5 minutes before.
NALL, Darling. Avva Medicinal.

Have an Restorative Summat and a hair dryer.
The hairy dog has the hairdryer
I would let him have it
