Summer privations

On 1st August the first of my summer guests arrived bringing with them an end to my struggle to maintain a 'Daily Sketch' and a weekly 'Every Day matters' contribution.  But I have managed to some extent to keep my hand in, abandoning my guests on Thursday mornings and making a few random sketches as and when opportunities presented themselves.  Some of these I scanned to day and will publish above, others will have to wait for another occasion when grandchildren are hapilly engaged doing something other than 'helping grand-dad'!
