waiting for a man to come and collect a cheque

It is really, really hot and dry and the plants on the terrace are looking sad and thinned out.  Water rationing means that I really cannot justify watering the poor things either.

the first sketches since October, boy am I rusty!

I haven´t sketched since October and am not happy at all with the results but will have to endeavour to do a sketch a day at least to get back into the rhythm.
No he hecho bosquejos desde Octubre y me siento muy oxidado, no me gusta para nada los resultados.  Tendre que hacer una al dia hasta que entro el ritmo de nuevo.
