You know how thistle's got their name..... While wandering bare foot in the Garden of Eden ( and bare everything else if some are to be believed) and hand in hand with Eve, Adam stepped on something with vicious sppikes and excleaimed, " Careful Eve, Thistle prick you!"

Are they the same family as Artichokes? They look like miniature versions. Thanks Magpie

It looks great. Carluccio says that if you peel off the spiky parts they taste very good...I think I'll pass. Here we had a good day and I met some new people doing clearance work in a local wood...good physical labour that leaves a nice tired feeling and a sun burned bald patch! Amazing what can be done….

Bray seafront was packed... people of all shapes and sizes brought their kites and picnic-baskets and ice-cream money for a lovely day on the strand. AND the fair is under construction, the ferris-wheel and rollercoaster are almost set up, the cranes had me awestruck like a little kid! So lucky to be working during Bray Summerfest - wooo! Can't wait. I hope the weather isn't too rotten. Wasn’t today’s weather spectacular?!
