Cold, cold, cold with `wintry showers` forecast and yet the sun has real warmth in it. Good walking weather while it stays dry, like the backdrop to a Persil ad, a child`s painting, all bright primary colours done in poster paints: fresh green grass, azure sky and cheerful white clouds, bright yellow dandelions, splashes of golden gorse and the creamy white blobs of sheep dotted across the fields.
Back in the garden indulged in a bit of `gardening`(i.e. damage limitation - lots of secateur action)but mostly watched the dozens of bees and hoverflies swarming over the fruit bushes and dreamt of dark, luscious blackcurrant jam.
