'I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavours to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.' Henry David Thoreau, b 12th July, 1817. Hello, how goes it where you are? It would seem that most of the UK is on heatwave alert. Not so here at Posh Towers in SW Scotland, where we reached the dizzy heights of 17°C today. I'm swimming in the sea most days, it's cool, refreshing, and so soothing, and not quite warm enough yet for the arrival of the jellyfish armada, although moon jellies have been spotted washed up, easily identifiable by their purple gonads. 💜 Jellyfish are 95% water and did you know, they have have no brain, blood or heart.... Anyhoo, a beautiful swimming pool for you, free from purple gonaded medusas, here's to living the life we imagine, keep those dreams alive... Xx @lemasdelachapelle
